Hello Sergey,

Thanks a lot for this work! See below some comments/doubts, though.

Then, I'm not sure of the approach. Indeed, the defconfigs are really
meant to be configurations that have been tested on HW. If we start
changing them without testing them on HW, their purpose kind of goes
away. What is your plan here? Wait for the initial submitters to
confirm that the change is OK and working on HW ? It might take a
while. Or should we give up on that promise that all defconfigs have
been tested on HW ?

Thanks!

Thomas
