Apart from configuration related discussion,
this patch was helpful for me to notice "default" machine type, and difference between "native",
so I believe it is good to have this as sample config.

The justification is strange. We are not going to have a config file
for every combinations.
Defaulting defconfig files to the native machine natural to me.

Also not scope of this patch but I agree on Bruce's comment on renaming "default" machine type to "generic",
I can send a patch for this if there is a demand.

default is an Intel core 2. Why generic is a better name?
