This commit looks a bit fishy, as it does multiple things:

- add multitouch support
- move options around in the file that did not change
- drop some options (AEABI, CMA, SOC_CAMERA_OV2640,
   SERIAL_DEV_CTRL_TTYPORT) for unknown reasons.

Cleaning up is fine, but please don't mix that with functional changes.
It's also fine to add multiple options at once in one patch, but when
you use 'make savedefconfig', please check each option that
gets dropped, some options might have gained new dependencies
or got renamed but are still needed here.

Finally, it might be good to check if the newly added options should
also be added to multi_v7_defconfig.

Not pulled for now, I'd suggest you resend without the 'savedefconfig'
cleanup, we can do that in a follow-up.
