We believe these defconfigs serve as a generic framework rather than 
being tied to specific product features. Therefore, we have enabled them 
in the defconfig to ensure the end-to-end feature is available in the 
pristine upstream build. However, if you think this would introduce 
overhead for other products, we will exclude this patch in the next 
revision.

Best regards,

Manaf
