And since Linus' whinge about ARM defconfigs, I really *hate* merging
anything with *any* defconfig changes in - as a result, I don't
particularly want to deal with ARM defconfig changes anymore.

I thought we solved this with the introduction of "make savedefconfig"
that created much much smaller defconfig.

Did we solve it to Linus' satisfaction, or did we solve it sufficiently
to avoid the immediate threat of them all being removed and we still have
work to do?  I've no idea.

Personally, I'd still like to see less of them but without significantly
impacting the usefulness of automated built tooks like Simtec's
kautobuild.
