MORIN" In this commit, you are changing the defconfigs that use BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_SAME_AS_HEADERS. But I am wondering if we shouldn't simply change *all* defconfigs to use this new feature. Essentially all defconfigs have to worry about selecting a kernel headers version that matches the kernel version they use. We could switch them all to use your new mechanism, no? Of course, this can be done as a separate effort, this is not a call to change this particular patch, but rather a discussion on what to do next.
