This is all I need for now to get Android booting with a mainline
kernel, no fancy features though that make the device worthy of being a
phone (pending hardware drivers). Perhaps replacing these config
fragments with gki_defconfig upstream is a good idea - as discussed with
John - but that's not something for me to decide nor embark on :).
Having them upstreamed might be nicer than finding the appropriate
corresponding downstream tree.
