Ralf,

How about if I create an arch/mips/configs directory and move all
defconfig files there?  I know we've talked about this in the past and I
don't remember any good reasons for not doing it?

Pete

 Except the plain "defconfig" file wants to keep sitting in arch/mips to
be picked up by configuration scripts.

I think it's means like arch/ppc/configs.

Well, I moved all the files to arch/mips/defconfigs/.  Guess I should
shorten the names now that they're in a subdir, a patch for another day :-)

Well, the arch/$FOO/configs/ name gets picked up automatically by
make oldconfig, so I think it's the better choice..

Given that we have all those defconfigs, it'd be nice to know what
they're all for.  Appended please find a patch to add a documentation
file to explain them.  As I'm not really sure what they all really
*are* for, this is just a starting point.
