Alright, so I grabbed a few parts of this series to investigate the
points I'm trying to grasp better, and I think this is going the wrong
track. We should start off by dropping "default y" from BOOTSTD, and
then start adding "default y if" for SoCs as we convert them. The end
goal should be that we get to the point where we can "default y if ARM
|| RISCV || X86" or perhaps "default y !(PPC || M68K || ...)" as it's
just a few architectures that haven't ended up being converted. But
today, there's too much churn on platforms that aren't making any use of
this. And I don't think this is going to be functionally worse than all
of the places we "imply DISTRO_DEFAULTS" today, as functionally we can
replace that with "imply BOOTSTD" as they get migrated.
