Yeah, IMHO it's something the arm-soc maintainers should do only right
after rc1.

Doing it at any other point in time may remove options that have just been
added to multi_v7_defconfig by an arm-soc submaintainer, and that depend on
a Kconfig change queued in another maintainer's for-next branch.

Personally, I think no arm-soc submaintainer should touch multi_v7_defconfig,
and all changes should be applied by the arm-soc maintainers.
