[dpdk-dev] Duplicate config symbols

Hi,
I wondered multiple times now when changing a config symbol that some of
them are in the .config file multiple times.
I totally feel like I'm overlooking something, but still it might be worth
to ask.

In particular:
awk -F "=" '/=/ {print $1}' debian/build/static-root/.config | sort | uniq
-c | sort -n | grep -v 1
     2 CONFIG_RTE_ARCH
     2 CONFIG_RTE_EAL_IGB_UIO
     2 CONFIG_RTE_EAL_VFIO
     2 CONFIG_RTE_EXEC_ENV
     2 CONFIG_RTE_KNI_KMOD
     2 CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_KNI
     2 CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_AF_PACKET
     2 CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_VHOST
     2 CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_POWER
     2 CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_VHOST
     2 CONFIG_RTE_MACHINE
     2 CONFIG_RTE_TOOLCHAIN

Is there any reason to do so or is this an issue in make config?
