Why do you need your own defconfig? If it's just on the short term until
all your code is upstream, that's fine, but this goes against the single
Image aim. I would like defconfig to cover all supported SoCs (and yes,
ACPI on by default once we deem it !EXPERT anymore), though at some
point we may need a server/mobile split (if the generated image is too
large, maybe more stuff being built as modules).

Yes, that's exactly it. Ours is an ACPI system, and so we have to have our own defconfig for now. We're holding off on pushing our own defconfig changes (enabling drivers, etc) until ACPI is enabled in arch/arm64/configs/defconfig.

My understanding is that ACPI won't be enabled by default until at least after the GIC driver is fully ACPI-enabled.
