I think it might make sense to keep it a blind option so that we don't
do --enable-tls on architectures that don't have TLS support at all (if
that even exists).
I have something like that in one of my branches:
commit 2ea50f3887747d6b72d6b133806d8b3ff995fe4a

gcc: make TLS option a blind option
The current BR2_GCC_ENABLE_TLS option can lead users to create a
non-working configuration: if they choose uClibc with NPTL and disable
TLS support. This is bug #7921.
Since TLS support is really an internal thing, it doesn't make a lot
of sense to have a visible option for this. Therefore, this commit
turns it to a blind option: TLS support is enabled in the compiler if
glibc, eglibc or uClibc NPTL are used, and is disabled otherwise.
