A compile-time config option clearly would not work here, because it
breaks multiplatform support when some platforms are different from
others. I can still see the possible need for a global run-time setting
though, to give some platform init code the ability to override the
DT flags when it knows better. That is probably what you want to do
on keystone without LPAE.
