You should probably have just have CONFIG_8xx and
CONFIG_YOUR_OWN_BOARD defined. Don't enable these other boards, since
that just makes the code to access some board specific control
registers you don't have. This surely leads to machine check
exceptions or other erratic behavior. However, it may be useful to
grep all the CONFIG_MPC86xADS and CONFIG_FADS code sections, and check
if you should implement something similar to these code blocks that
applies to your own board.
