Sorry for the delayed reply here.  I'm also not entirely sure this is a
good idea.  Moving the defconfig files?  Maybe.  It does make checking
all configs a bit more tricky, but indeed the configs directory is
unwieldy.  Moving the dts files?  Those should be a direct cp from the
kernel, so that makes things less clear to me.  Especially since it will
need other common files that will still be elsewhere.
