I'm perfectly happy with you taking this, but thanks for asking the question. I think that, outside of the architectural bits, it makes sense for arm-soc to manage config options that are requested by the submaintainers. It also helps reduce defconfig churn. I typically wait until -rc1 before making any .config changes, unless they're urgent (e.g. systemd suddenly starts needing some options enabled in order to boot), so if you queue this for the merge window then we should be good.
