We never describe each and every board using Buildroot options. If we
were to do that, we would have gazillion of options for the thousands
of boards that exist.

So, we are not going to accept this patch. What we do however is add a
number of defconfigs for well known platforms, just like:

  configs/qemu_riscv32_virt_defconfig
  configs/qemu_riscv64_virt_defconfig

Best regards,

Thomas
