I think split-config-cleanup messed up at least the powerpc64 config, since it
did :

powerpc/config had :

# CONFIG_POWER3 is not set

powerpc/config.powerpc64 had :

CONFIG_POWER3=y

and the split config option removed the later one, while the former was
supposed to be removed, i think, and added to the other per-flavour config
files.
