Look at the config option dependencies please.

The minnowboard_max_defconfig has:

BR2_TARGET_GRUB2_X86_64_EFI=y

But BR2_TARGET_GRUB2_X86_64_EFI has "depends on BR2_ARCH_IS_64". So
when you switch from x86-64 to i386, this option is no longer
available. Therefore Kconfig reverts back to the first possible choice
between BR2_TARGET_GRUB2_I386_PC and BR2_TARGET_GRUB2_I386_EFI.
