One or two years ago I almost convinced Jiri Kosina to do a treewide cleanup of defconfig files. But after Jiri saw my patch (or pull request, actually) which I think touched 90% of defconfig files - ie, hundreds of files - sanity prevailed and that plan was silently dropped. If I do a Kconfig cleanup upstream I try to mention the related cruft in defconfig files. Sometimes the maintainers want it removed too, sometimes they don't.
