If there's a common folder, I guess it should be named
allwinner-common or something like that, because it's hard to realize
from the name that axx-common refers to "Allwinner boards".

However, I am not sure I am a fan of sharing the hash files. Indeed,
it will only work if all those boards are always bumped all together,
which may not be the case in the future: one contributor may only have
access to just one board, or a subset of boards, and would therefore
only be able to provide a defconfig bump for the subset of the boards
he has access to.
