The reason I add the kernel defconfig into the board folder is that
NXP removed all defconfigs and renamed the valid one to 'defconfig' in
the kernel. This makes it impossible (at least I think so) to use an
in tree defconfig.

$ ls -l arch/arm64/configs/
total 16
-rw-r--r-- 1 erik erik 14337 dec 15 02:52 defconfig

Copying it into the board folder was the best solution available.
