You can still modify the upstream defconfig by adding patches to the
recipe. At that point we can meaningfully review them and consider
whether they should be sent upstream. And when upstream makes a new
version, some or all of these patches would be removed as upstream has
already taken them and made a release with them.

This is the standard practice, and it has been repeatedly proven as
far more maintainable and sustainable than making copies of files and
modifying them privately. Please work with upstream to get the changes
you need into the master branch.
