Additionally switch mainline kernel from qcom_fg to bq27xxx_battery_i2c.
While at it simplify the deviceinfo_modules_initfs_alpine list to
exclude implicit dependencies that mkinitfs can find itself to make the
line length a bit less unwieldy.

Additionally switch mainline kernel from qcom_fg to bq27xxx_battery_i2c
and probe the correct panel driver, this was a regression that came from
the initial linux-edge enablement MR.
While at it simplify the deviceinfo_modules_initfs_alpine list to
exclude implicit dependencies that mkinitfs can find itself to make the
line length a bit less unwieldy.
While this provides the ability to use ModemManager, there are quite a
lot of issues with the driver still; keep it enabled in kernel for now
and let users "modprobe ipa" if they want to test modem features
whichever side effects that may cause including:
- Making the device nearly impossible to poweroff or reboot
- Making the UI lag noticeably more due to some interconnect bandwidth
issues

The qca (Bluetooth) and qcom (non-zap GPU) firmware blobs don't need to
be signed by the OEM, so let's use upstream versions to benefit from
fixes and updates done there.
The soc-qcom-sdm845* packages are mostly sufficient, but there are a few
issues that all MSM8998 devices on mainline will face, so include
workarounds for them in a generic package all device pkgs can depend on.
Kernel doesn't compile anymore, and it doesn't seem worth fixing it
again. The kernel has been added in 2017 as a stock mainline kernel from
that time with only two patches and wasn't maintained since then,
looking at git log --follow it was only patched to fix it up when
it didn't build.
As the device is a generic x86_64 tablet: if somebody has that
particular device, try to get the generic device-tablet-x64uefi running
instead.
Patch header for 0027 was not formatted correctly. Fix that and
re-generate all other patches while we are at it.

Also:
Fix camera on google-snow.
Enable video decoder.
Make boot.img smaller making kernel more modular and making FS-related
modules =y instead of =m (built-in file systems consume less space
than initramfs modules).
Reverts commit 70efe55031 for kernels that
started failing on bpo. I suspect it's caused by a change in binutils,
since I tried building linux-oneplus-billie2 with gcc6 and got the same
error (after trying other workarounds like disabling selinux for it, but
then it failed elsewhere).
We previously installed dtbs outside of the boot partition, so it
was necessary to copy them from the root partition to boot if you
wanted to utilise them in U-Boot scripts. This is no longer
necessary as we now install dtbs to the boot partition directly, so
remove this workaround and edit the U-Boot script to reflect the
change.
This device package represents several devices, so use plural form in
pkgdesc of APKBUILD:
pkgdesc="Google Hana Chromebooks"
However, when deviceinfo is already installed, it is intended to represent
only current device, so use singular form here:
deviceinfo_name="Google Hana Chromebook"
