I'm not a fan of patching defconfig's this way - this will only bring
tons of patch conflicts (consider what happens when anyone already has
a completely updated defconfig in his tree and your patch goes in first).

What you do manually already happens automatically when a maintainer
updates a defconfig.

And for not regularly updated defconfigs one obsolete option more or
less does not matter at all - even more since apart from a warning
there's anyway no problem.
