No. Compile test *allows* to compile test, but it does not mean you want
immediately compile everything. allyesconfig is for everything. Maybe
you want to compile some subset of drivers.

BTW, I am aligning with the most frequent pattern (quickly judging), so
of course I also accept argument that we should revert that other
pattern and use "default y" everywhere.
