Thanks for this work! I've applied to master. The renaming of the Linux
kernel configuration files to linux.config is a good idea.

However, it seems you haven't updated the *contents* of the Linux
kernel configuration file. I did bump a few of those defconfigs today,
and running "make linux-update-defconfig" usually generates a few lines
of changes in the defconfig. Be careful: we don't want to have part of
the kernel configuration values that are enforced by Buildroot, such as
initramfs, devtmpfs, CPU_{LITTLE,BIG}_ENDIAN, etc. But there are other
changes that those. For example:

--- a/board/qemu/mips64-malta/linux-4.11.config
+++ b/board/qemu/mips64-malta/linux-4.16.config
@@ -1,14 +1,12 @@
