Subject: [PATCH v1 1/1] x86/defconfigs: Explicitly unset CONFIG_64BIT in i386_defconfig

From: Daniel Díaz <daniel.diaz@...aro.org>

A recent refresh of the defconfigs got rid of the following
(unset) config:

  # CONFIG_64BIT is not set

Innocuous as it seems, when the config file is saved again the
behavior is changed so that CONFIG_64BIT=y.

Currently,

  $ make i386_defconfig
  $ grep CONFIG_64BIT .config
  CONFIG_64BIT=y

whereas previously (and with this patch):

  $ make i386_defconfig
  $ grep CONFIG_64BIT .config
  # CONFIG_64BIT is not set

Fixes: 0e11f689ec03 ("x86/kconfig/32: Refresh defconfig")
