Well, we should be putting SoC/arch-specific stuff into the defaults and
also using this as a chance to look at places where defaults differ
pointlessly.

But, I also hear your concern.  I see Masahiro has been working with
merge_config.sh from the kernel in the kernel.   How crazy would it be
to re-work things (in some cases..) to have a merge in the config
process so that there could be a sunxi-common config fragment.  Or
can/should we really just use default foo if Y in more places.
