I'm not sure about this one. It was probably meant to be able to compile
the sandbox under different OSes. I think for now we can remove it.

This can be removed.

Ditto

This comes from the kernel. I don't know if it makes any sense there
since it is default y without prompt.

These can also be removed, they are handled in runtime now.

This is part of a choice, the other choice is EUKREA_CPUIMX27_NOR_64MB.
There can be only one, so in the code we only check for
EUKREA_CPUIMX27_NOR_64MB. We should keep this

The intention here was that the CFI driver only shows up when HAS_CFI is
selected, but apparently this is broken. We have the choice to remove
the HAS_CFI completely or to add a if HAS_CFI to drivers/nor/Kconfig.
Any opinions here?

m68k is quite broken at the moment, most probably because I failed to
merge some files from his patches. I'll ask Carsten Schlote, the
original author, whether he cares to fix m68k. Until this I suggest not
to touch this.

The diskonchip support is a 1:1 copy from U-Boot and nobody has touched
it since. We can remove it alltogether.

This can be removed.

Same as with EUKREA_CPUIMX27_NOR_* above. We should keep this.
