What would they be off-tree?

What I meant is that when you look at the per architecture defconfigs,
they are also all exactly the same, except for the TARGET_<foo> option.

So instead of having this big duplication, my suggestion is to get rid
of architecture-specific defconfig, and just have a few
architecture-independent defconfig, addressing common use cases (such
as "minimal" and "feature full").

Best regards,

Thomas
