I won't oppose to this very strongly, but I wanted to voice my opinion
that I am not sure it is very useful to adjust all those defconfigs to
make them use the "Buildroot Linux logo".

One aspect of Buildroot that I like a lot is that we don't try to do a
lot of "integration": we use upstream stuff as-is, and leave it up to
the Buildroot user to do all the polishing/integration. Having a
default logo with Buildroot branding goes a bit against this principle.

We'll have a random set of defconfigs using the logo, another random
set not using the logo. This really doesn't had much value overall.

So I'm very fine with PATCH 1/4 and 2/4 to help people customizing the
logo. Perhaps 3/4 to have an example logo (but not even sure it is
that useful), but I'm more skeptical about PATCH 4/4.

Best regards,

Thomas
