config-boards-tracking branch already has got config fragment for Origen
board, but this config file has enabled all the config options used in
all the topic branches too. If we plan to keep it that way, I suggest to
add the basic board config file to config-core-tracking. (It makes sense
as we would be enabling only mainline components that is essential to
boot the board). Any further modification to these can always be done
through LT topic branches.

Andrey, let me know which way you would prefer the patch?
