I don't think that's correct. As always stated, the defconfig goes via
soc vendor tree. It was always like that, so if you intend to change it,
provide some rationale and make it explicit (and considering you did not
Cc other soc maintainers how can we even know that policy changed?).
Putting it here will unnecessarily include soc on every random arm64
defconfig change.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
