Understood.

I am fine with breaking out the following, most likely deferring them to
the next release as I am concerned about bisectability:

* ARM: multi_v7_defconfig: Remove Marzen
* ARM: shmobile: Remove Marzen from shmobile_defconfig

There is another defconfig change, which I will resubmit in the
defconfig branch for this release.

* ARM: shmobile: Enable fixed voltage regulator in shmobile_defconfig

Without the above a number of devices do not function.
