Instead of using these .cfg files as-is, how about “importing” them?
That <soc> structure (or whatever) we discussed could contain
essentially the relevant part of those .cfg files (the partitioning info
founds in those files seems less relevant to me, or at least it seems
like a separate issue.)

WDYT?

IOW, we could definitely take Buildroot as an inspiration (it’s probably
one of the best tools in this area), but maybe not reuse the actual
files.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
