It is sad we are loosing XIP configuration - it used to uncover some bugs in a past. Probably, you might consider to have stm32 tiny (+xip) defconfig for those who do not want/need all-in-one kernel.

I just want that default stm32_defconfig covers the main MCU boards and the maximum IPs/driver for those boards. SD cards will be the boot support that will be supported in buildroot (except for stm32f429-disco). But I agree, I could maybe use a frag to have a tiny configuration for stm32 to be able to flash xip in embeded flash and provide a "basic" support (kernel boot + console).
