I really don't think the kernel should carry configs other than the generic ones used by developers. We had this on arm32 but mostly because we didn't have a single kernel image for a long time (and when we got it, it was mostly for v7 cores). I don't want to get back to hosting a multitude of configs in mainline. -- Catalin
