m68k: disable BR2_BINFMT_FLAT_SEP_DATA for coldfire

Browse source 
BR2_BINFMT_FLAT_SEP_DATA can be used to create XIP userland and works fine
for m68k. Unfortunately a lot of basic packages as pcre are not compileable
because of a CPU or hardware limitation. The reason for failing are very
big functions used in the libraries or application code.

Typical errors are:

Fatal error: Tried to convert PC relative branch to absolute jump
or
error: value -yyyyy out of range

Add kernel patch from 4ec5542679 to make
BR2_BINFMT_FLAT_ONE compiled firmware work fine.

[Thomas: add comment in Config.in file about sep-data existing on m68k,
but being disabled due to build issues with numerous packages.]

Allow for the data and text segments to be separated and placed in
different regions of memory.
