Yeah I agree we should do it on regular basis just before -rc1
for multi_v7_defconfig.

The reasoning being that make savedefconfig is pretty much useless
otherwise for generating defconfig patches and the chances of
pointless merge conflicts and errors keep increasing until
something breaks :)

I can attempt to do a late branch of the dropped and moved options
refreshed against arm-soc defconfig branch if that helps.
