Thanks for this patch. Could you clarify in the commit log on which
platforms it was runtime-tested, vs. the platforms for which you only
verified the build?

I'm afraid this has certainly not been tested, as I believe these lines
have no effect since they lack the =y to enable the option:

BR2_PACKAGE_XZ=y

for example.

Please fix this to have a newline at end of file.

(Of course, same for all other defconfigs)

Thanks!
