   There could also be other issues in the created context.  Some 
configurations do much more than just setup links.  They may, for example, 
auto-generate files based on the current configuration.
   
   When a defconfig is included by the Makefile as the .config, it is an 
incomplete and invalid configuration.  This could potentially cause other more 
serious configuration problems than just some extra bogus soft links.  It is 
just not a good behavior.
   
   That is why clean_context was invoked before.  To eliminate this potentially 
bad configuration.
