This will also fix using CONFIG_PPC_QEMU_E500 on PPC64.

These config symbols are for setting -mcpu. Kernels built with
CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU should also work on e5500/e6500.
I don't think so.
I do think so. It's what you get when you run "make corenet64_smp_defconfig"
and that kernel works on e5500/e6500.
At least on QEMU it is not working because e5500/e6500
is based on the e500mc core and the option CONFIG_PPC_E500MC also
controls the cpu features (check cputable.h).
Again, this is only a problem when you have CONFIG_PPC_QEMU_E500 without
CONFIG_CORENET_GENERIC, and the fix for that is to have CONFIG_PPC_QEMU_E500
select CONFIG_E500 (and you need to manually turn on CONFIG_PPC_E500MC if
applicable, since CONFIG_PPC_QEMU_E500 can also be used with e500v2).
I wouldn't be opposed to also adding "select PPC_E500MC if PPC64" to
CONFIG_PPC_QEMU_E500.
Please find attached the new version, setting E500 and PPC_E500MC on 64
bit for review.

The problem is that CONFIG_PPC_QEMU_E500 doesn't select E500 (I didn't
notice it before because usually CORENET_GENERIC is enabled as well).
I noticed that as well, but I think it makes more sense to select
E500/PPC_E500MC within the cputype menu instead of having a dependency
which might be not clear for the user.
Again, that breaks CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU. Unlike 32-bit, all 64-bit book3e
targets are supposed to be supportable with a single kernel image.
