Well, it may make sense to use common defconfig files for boards of
the same breed (different configurations of one board family from one
vendor for example). But please note that TQM5200, CM5200 and
Motion-PRO are boards from 3 different vendors, used by different
projects with differing needs. IMO it makes very much sense to
provide 3 separate default configurations that match the specific
requirements of each of these boards.
In this case I vote for separate defconfig files, please.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
