[OE-core] [v2 PATCH 0/8] linux-yocto: consolidated pull request

[Bruce Ashfield]

Hi all,

v2: actually cc oe-core on the series.

Here is the consolidated pull request for linux-yocto 4.1 and 4.4. Most of the
changes are updates to -stable for the kernels, and the others are updates for
specific boards.

I've been building and booting these for qemu*, but of course, more mileage and
combinations in the autobuilder is best.

Some things to note:

 - We have some refactored kernel configuration updates to the base/core policy
   of the standard kernel, with a new "developer" kernel type being available,
   leaving standard as a smaller variant. Existing board configs have been
   flipped to use developer, so they'll see no change, leaving new board configs
   to take advantage of the smaller, standard kernel type.

 - The yocto reference BSPs haven't been updated yet, and we need to find
   someone with the h/w to do the updates. These may just have to stay on
   4.1 LTSI for this cycle.

 - We are still seeing the 32 bit x86 X issue on the 4.4 kernel , with a splat on
   boot up. I've tried to bisect this twice, leading to inconclusive results, but
   regardless, I need to march 4.4 onto the latest -stable, and we'll continue
   looking into this issue in the M4 timeframe.

 - There still seem to be some races in perf, and something is up with sstate
   and the kexec/kboot builds using meta-initramfs and linux-yocto-tiny-kexecboot.
   Now that these updates are out, I'll revisit them and hold any stable updates
   (unless there are significant CVEs) in the M4 cycle.

Cheers,

Bruce
