We can appreciate that *defconfig should be complete.
However we also have a desire to easy maintenance of multiple board *defconfig files variants which differ
in key CA features differences. As presidio is a development board, its important to be able to support and easily maintain different
but common configuration variants for our customers.
It seems that buildman takes in our partial board varient *defconfig files and autogenerates more complete defconfig
called u-boot.cfg at build time. This also, in our opinion, helps to keep our defconfig files from becoming stale
with newer revisions of the core u-boot code base.
If this is not acceptable, do you have any recommendation on how we easy our maintenance of
multiple board defconfig variants using an alternate approach?
