I vote for collecting "common config files" in a subdir:

include/configs/common

for example:
include/configs/common/mpc83xx.h

collects all common config options for 83xx boards.
and so on for all other architectures/manufacturer ...

And a "#include "configs/common/..." provides enough
information, what will come in with that include ...
