I'd like a review/ack from Peter Seiderer, or other RPi folks of the
Buildroot community. I think the commit log should summarize why the
Zero W support is removed from raspberrypi0_defconfig, and why a
separate defconfig is needed.

An update to board/raspberrypi/readme.txt would be needed.

Thanks,

 I also feel uncomfortable with splitting the defconfig for the two. Perhaps the
version you submitted here can also be used for Rpi0?

 To highlight the differences with the existing files, you can use 'git
format-patch -C' (and possibly also --find-copies-harder). Then the differences
with the existing files stand out.

The remaining difference between raspberrypi0_defconfig raspberrypi0w_defconfig
wil be the usage of the pi3-miniuart-bt overlay. As there is no possibility to
enable/disable this on demand I think this is enough to justify a second
configuration (and keep the 'better' ttyAMA0 usage for serial console for
the basic raspberrypi0)...

Regards,
Peter

 Since indeed there is no convenient way to support two similar-but-different
boards with a single defconfigs, I've applied to master, thanks. I did make the
following changes though:
     - Bump to same kernel version as raspberrypi0.
     - Remove redundant comment.
     - Remove redundant default BR2_PACKAGE_RPI_FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DTB_OVERLAYS=y.
     - Improve commit log.
     - Refresh .gitlab-ci.yml.
