Huh, why wouldn't BR2_KERNEL_none work for those targets?

Not only that, That info is required by the license.

Fine, that's why we have the configuration in the first place I
guess - But the question isn't about what you or your customers want,
it's about what the default should be in BR.

It makes sense to default these to off like for everything else, so
I'll remove the atmel special case.

Again, feel free to use it, but it shouldn't be default (E.G. it
breaks the build when you don't have a /tftpboot and/or it isn't
writable.
