That's true.
But anyway at some point we'll need to switch selection of commands in
Kconfig, right?

Probably I'm missing details of our Kconfig migration plan if one
exists. Then I'd like to get a reference to the plan so I'm not
attempting to do things that are already scheduled and could be even in
a process of implementation.

Otherwise if there's no current plan for Kconfig migration we may start
discussion on how to deal with "commands" in particular.

The point is commands are low-hanging fruits in terms of Kconfig
migration - there're no extra options and tweaks, once all commands are
added in Kconfig (essentially with dependencies etc) we may clean all
board headers. The only real problem here is amount of work - lots of
headers/defconfigs to patch. But still this is doable.

That's a separate topic. I do agree that CMD_FPGA makes not much sense
for most of boards, as well as some others.

And I think during migration process of commands to Kconfig it's a good
time to reconsider default commands.

I will highly appreciate input on both topics from others so we'll do
some progress here and will make sure all parties are happy.
