[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/2] configs/macchiatobin: drop marvell defconfig

Support for MacchiatoBin board in U-Boot and Linux has been significantly
improved during the last several years. So there is not much sense in
having a separate build configuration based on older vendor Linux kernel
and U-Boot. Drop marvell config and rename mainline config.

 How to build
 ============
 
-There are two build options: mainline support and vendor support.
+Default configuration provides the following BSP versions:
+ - Linux v5.6.3 (mainline)
+ - U-Boot v2020.01 (mainline)
+ - ATF v1.5-18.12.2 (Marvell)
 
-For the mainline BSP, we use:
- - Linux v4.19.2
- - U-Boot v2018.11
+To build images run the following commands:
 
-For the vendor BSP, we use the sources available from Marvell Github
-page at https://github.com/MarvellEmbeddedProcessors, which uses:
- - Linux v4.4.120
- - U-Boot v2018.03
-
-At the moment mainline support for the board is a work in
-progress. Mainline kernel 4.19 enables eth2 in 1Gb (RJ45 connector J5),
-copper 10Gb interfaces, and automatic configuration of select SFP
-modules on the SFP cages. The vendor BSP enables more hardware features
-out of the box, but lacks support for SFP detection and automatic
-configuration.
-
-To use the mainline BSP run the following commands:
-
-    $ make solidrun_macchiatobin_mainline_defconfig
-    $ make
-
-To use the vendor BSP run the following commands:
-
-    $ make solidrun_macchiatobin_marvell_defconfig
+    $ make solidrun_macchiatobin_defconfig
     $ make
