  So why include a config in buildroot? If it's just the defconfig that 
is already in the kernel tree, you can use it.

  Please create your patches with the -M option to send-email or 
format-patch, so that we can actually see the diff crossing the rename. 
Otherwise it's pretty hard to review.

  Please don't remove these comments, they're useful. You can selectively 
undo changes with 'git checkout -p configs/beaglebone_defconfig'.

  Isn't there a tag you can clone from? That's much faster, because then 
we can (usually) do a shallow clone.
