this patch. patch/0001-Marvell-support-for-armada7020-on-LK4.9.168.patch what is the nature? is it upstreamed? How could we maintain this patch? also, I do not see this patch in master branch. |
Armada 7020 support got upstreamed. Im also thinking how to maintain it, as it would break future kernel version migration. |

Please elaborate. Currently it looks like, only make olddefconfig
was run against a newer Linux kernel version. This could be split out into a separate merge/pull request, couldn’t it be?

Yes, the patch approach for kernel config is obsolete in current master branch,
This PR has to be revisited and the required changes should go into patch/kconfig_inclusion and patch/kconfig_exclusion.
Thanks for your time to review this PR.
Action Item would be to raise a as per new manage_kernel_config infra.
