Hey Samuel,
I think this and patch 12/12 with the defconfig changes should be
deferred until post LPC (which still leaves plenty of time for
making the 6.1 merge window). We already have like 4 different
approaches between the existing SOC_FOO symbols & two more when
D1 stuff and the Renesas stuff is considered.

Plan is to decide at LPC on one approach for what to do with
Kconfig.socs & to me it seems like a good idea to do what's being
done here - it's likely that further arm vendors will move and
keeping the common symbols makes a lot of sense to me...

Thanks,
Conor.
