Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next] net: axienet: In kconfig add ARM64 as supported platform

xilinx axi_emac driver is supported on ZynqMP UltraScale platform.
So enable ARCH64 in kconfig. It also removes redundant ARCH_ZYNQ
dependency. Basic sanity testing is done on zu+ mpsoc zcu102
evaluation board.

But I can image that others could prefer to remove all dependencies.

Thanks,

Yes, we'd much rather see this litany of architectures removed.
Is there any reason it's there in the first place?

Most drivers are tested on just a few architectures, but as long
as correct APIs are used they are assumed to work across the board.
Otherwise 75% of our drivers would be x86 only. Don't be shy.

Yes, I can build test on all mentioned architectures and see how it goes.

Looking into past few commits, this dependency list was incrementally
extended for each platform. In case there are no real dependencies
we can get rid of arch list.
