As I explained yesterday, I'm working on more cleanups that involve
reworking the dependencies around ZBOOTROM, AUTO_ZRELADDR and friends,
and removing zreladdr for all platforms. So please do not come up with
Tegra specific hacks to fix this up. So for the time being I'd simply
suggest using the minimal fix i.e.:
select AUTO_ZRELADDR if !ZBOOT_ROM
And eventually this will disappear entirely in favor of a single global
config option which is not platform dependent.
