With busybox 1.24.1, the busybox package contains a /bin/sh ->
busybox.nosuid symlink and update-alternatives knows about the /bin/sh ->
busybox.nosuid alternative.

With 1.26.2, this binary doesn't exist anymore in the package and /bin/sh
is linked to busybox.suid at rootfs time.

sh being suid doesn't look right *at all*.  There are upstream changes to
make installing these binary names options, so it's quite likely that we're
just missing them in defconfig.

Also  makefile-fix-backport.patch was listed as a backported patch, so why
do we need to rebase it?  What's the current upstream-status, as you
deleted that from the patch?  Was it fixed in a different way in 1.26.2 so
the patch can be dropped?
