Since U-Boot switched away from manual CONFIG_* defines to Kconfig options, align devicetree documentation accordingly.
Signed-off-by: Sumit Garg sumit.garg@linaro.org ---
Changes in v6: - None
Changes in v5: - Fixed inappropriate documentation update.
Changes in v4: - Separate patch to align documentation to use Kconfig symbols instead.
