Oh, wait a second. This is actually going to totally break builds for
people because there are a lot of Kconfig-s that depend on it!

You need to first introduce a replacement / parent symbol.
Then (in another release if needed) update all Kconfig-s.
Then eventually you can get rid of ARCH_BCM_63XX.
