But this is the reason I sent you the patch in the first place. I
think "default y" is wrong and doesn't make any sense, so I'm asking
you for a technical reason why PMAC and CHRP should default to yes.
That is the focus of my patch. The defconfig changes are just to
clean up the mess that "default y" left behind.
