I get your point.. From my understanding, mt8371_evk IS genio_520, so
IMHO there will be no non genio MT8371_EVK.
But, I understand that it makes sense to have the name of the
defconfig matching the name of the device tree.. In that case should
we rename all other defconfigs for mt board?
(8365, 8370,8390,8395..)
