I'm mostly fine with the changes you made, there's just one thing that
worries me a bit: the discoverability of the defconfig is pretty bad.

If you don't know it already, it's very difficult to see that the
defconfig you should use for the Pine64 LTS is the SoPine Baseboard
one.

Maybe we can add a symbolic link from the pine64_lts_defconfig to the
sopine one to make that obvious?

The bonus would be that if we ever need to split them for whatever
reason, we can do that without breaking each and every user setup.
