 The commit Id you selected _is_ v4.3-rc1, or actually, the commit just before
v4.3-rc1:

$ git describe --contains 6917b51dee54f21816706af2278517b7af218f9a
v4.3-rc1~1

$ git log -1 --pretty=format:'%H%n%s' v4.3-rc1^
6917b51dee54f21816706af2278517b7af218f9a
Merge tag 'cris-for-4.3' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jesper/cris


 So I think you picked the wrong commit sha.

 It would be nice if you could add it, but that's not a prerequisite for getting
this defconfig in. Note that edk2 should go under boot/, not package/
