Dear Tom Rini,

Technically, I don't like the name "config_fallbacks.h"; how about "config_defaults.h" instead?
We have config_defaults.h today, which comes before<configs/...h>
Yes, why not use it for this purpose as well? It seems the appropriate place to me.
Order of operations. We would have to move it to after <configs/...h> (and change behavior, and break a few board files, git grep CONFIG_BOOTM_ include/) or make everyone not using the standard undef to get their table, which I started down (as you could see from the patch) but it's quite invasive. Or we add a fallbacks file and have config.h be: First: default commands <config_cmd_default.h> Second: Global defaults <config_defaults.h> Third: board <configs/...h> Fourth: arch fallbacks <asm/config.h> Fifth: Global fallbacks
Since developers should be tweaking just their board config file I'm calling what's before defaults and what's after fallbacks..
