Isn't the defconfig meant as a starting point to get working systems
with minimal config effort? At least that was always the way to go on arm
so far :-) .

So having boot-required drivers built-in with the rest enabled as modules
for supported boards will allow people to boot theirs without headaches.

Disabling unneeded drivers if you're starved for storage space in a special
project is always easier than hunting down all the drivers to enable for a
specific board.
