In general platforms are a more important configuration decision than
cpus, so the platforms should come first.
My basis for saying that is that our cpu selection options are generally
just about tuning for a cpu, rather than enabling/disabling support for
a cpu. On the other hand disabling a platform means you can't boot on
those machines, and any associated cpu options should vanish.
With this applied the start of menuconfig looks like:
[*] 64-bit kernel
Endianness selection (Build little endian kernel)
General setup
[*] Enable loadable module support
-*- Enable the block layer
Platform support
Processor support
Kernel options
Bus options
