This wasn't making sense the first time you sent it, and now that commit
log is just plain wrong. We have firmwares for the G6110, GX6250,
GX6650, BXE-4-32, and BXS-4-64 models, which can be found on (at least)
Renesas, Mediatek, Rockchip, TI and StarFive, so across three
architectures and 5 platforms. In two months.

We won't keep up, and there's no point in trying to. Especially so when
the only benefit is for make defconfig users to hit 'enter' one time
less.
