I do agree that this is not the preferable way of doing things and
that this should be propagated back up through Kconfig.  One
possibility might be to add ‘default “…” if “…”’ entries either to
the central Kconfig for SPL or to have these in the various
machine-subdirectories.

Let’s see if some consensus emerges from this...

My plan was to skip this specific patch on the merge (which is the
reason I kept the moveconfig-run as a separate commit), but keep
it here as a point-of-reference.
