First, with NET_LWIP being default rather than NET, there's a lot of
other Kconfig dependency issues. Unfortunately I don't see an easy tool
for making sure this is all clean aside from a shell loop like:
for C in `(cd configs;ls)`;do make -s $C;done
Once those are fixed, this is feeling pretty OK I think. I assume PXE
support is high on the follow-up TODO list? That said, after taking
tiger-rk3588 as an example platform and hacking out PXE related stuff and
turning on lwIP:

Although I'm not 100% sure that config is functionally equivalent, so
perhaps it would be helpful if you could take a board or two and
reconfigure them with the legacy stack, but equivalent functionality to
with lwIP, for comparison sake? Thanks!
