commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=1941386c3da9a4d5f14ab2c3c500188a0e221c08
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Replace a 'cp --preserve' with a 'touch --reference' so that the code
for foo-update-config and foo-update-defconfig is symmetrical to ease
maintainability and increase clarity.
