Newer Qualcomm SoCs (e.g. SDM845. MSM8953) seem to use a different
method to talk to the modem. There are no longer separate rpmsg/SMD
channels for QMI messags, instead the modem is also available through QRTR.
On these newer SoCs, installing msm-modem-mainline is pointless,
because the created /dev/modem device will not actually allow
communicating with the modem. However, you still need the part from
the base package (msm-modem), which installs+enables rmtfs.
To avoid confusion, rename the msm-modem-mainline subpackage to
msm-modem-rpmsg. Install only "msm-modem" on SDM845 because that
likely does not allow communication with the modem through RPMSG
anyway.
This upgrades the librem5-base config used to v21:
- better headphone support/detection
- enable runtime PM for usb/SD interface
This also removes the modemmanager subpackage, the udev rule that was
installed by that package is now in modemmanager in Alpine.
This upgrade includes:
1) enabling fb in deviceinfo: This was previously disabled for
debugging purposes, but can be re-enabled now so we get the
awesome postmarketOS splash screen!
2) fixing GPS, kinda: the device has changed, so this fixes the gpsd
config to use the correct device, and includes a udev rule to
make sure the device is owned by a group that gpsd can use
3) usbnet working with configfs
4) disables getty on /dev/ttyGS0, this was usb serial but isn't
configured now that this uses configfs
5) uses Mesa from Alpine, instead of mesa-git in pmaports. Upstream
Mesa has support for the vivante gpu, and no longer need to rely
on mesa master branch for support.
6) fix pulseaudio detection of profiles
7) update the librem5-base version used, includes a udev rule to
configure DDR freq governor as 'powersave' (reduces power, and
how much heat this thing puts out)

Newer versions of alsa-lib now require a top-level ALSA UCM
configuration (/usr/share/alsa/ucm2/ucm.conf):
ALSA lib parser.c:2159:(load_toplevel_config) Unable to find the top-level configuration file '/usr/share/alsa/ucm2/ucm.conf'.
ALSA lib main.c:983:(snd_use_case_mgr_open) error: failed to import hw:0 use case configuration -2
alsaucm: error failed to open sound card hw:0: No such file or directory
The upstream ALSA UCM configurations are provided by Alpine's
"alsa-ucm-conf" package, so make sure to install it additionally.
bq-paella has an external speaker amplifier connected to the right
channel of the headphones output. Add an extra UCM configuration
to handle this properly.
I cannot test on most of them (at the moment), but I was involved
in porting all of them so I could "guess" certain changes at least.
[ci:skip-vercheck]: just moved and some maintainers
a5lte and a5ulte are almost identical hardware-wise, the separate
package is mainly necessary because they use different firmware
signatures.
Alexey Min agreed to do some testing occasionally :)
At the moment we have Contributor: lines on some packages (but not all of them),
but often they don't represent the actual contributors to the package very well.
E.g. when we added them retroactively to the device packages we only added
the initial contributor (which isn't necessarily the person
who made most of the work for a device...)
The Git history is the most representative source for figuring out
who contributed to a package, so there is no reason to duplicate that
into the APKBUILD.
[skip ci]: way too many packages
