[PATCH] wanxl firware build fix

allmodconfig and allyesconfig are currently failing because they select
wanxl firmware rebuild, and that requires an m68k assembler toolchain.

Add a new generic option to the "Generic Driver Options" menu.  The option
is defaul equals y and prevents us from building firmware unless really
needed.

Firmware is usually provided in separate filer '_shipped', and there is no
need to rebuild them unless strictly required.  First user is WanXL - which
otherwise required a m68k tool-set to compile.

Say yes to avoid building firmware. Firmware is usually shipped
with the driver, and only when updating the firware a rebuild
should be made.
If unsure say Y here.

Allows you to rebuild firmware run by the QUICC processor.
It requires as68k, ld68k and hexdump programs.
