And use gitlab.com/exynos4-mainline/linux as source so that we no
longer have to carry all the patches in pmaports.

As stated in the MRs that added the patch, the ea8061 and s6evr02
panel drivers are originally from work by Simon Shields (fourkbomb).
Let's base our patches on the original commits to preserve authorship,
and note which modifications have been done, and by who. This is a
step towards making these patches ready for submission to upstream.

The UART console makes the boot process a whole lot slower due to printk
being synchronous. These devices are well enough supported that we can
disable UART logging by default to improve the boot speed. This
constitutes a ~30 second speedup on the SHIFT6mq at 115200 baud.
linux-postmarketos-omap now supports the Nokia N900 and its OMAP3430 SoC, so
drop this device-specific fork

Remove maintainers who could not be reached to test v22.12. Add exkc as
maintainer for firmware-pine64-rockpro64 as discussed in review of this
patch.

- upgrade to 6.2.1
- drop musb patch (not needed since linux mainline commit
ffbe2feac59b37c8dc536727552b4f375e1b9aec)
- enable LRU_GEN

Kernel configuration addition:
Enabled the newly added Lazy RCU scheduler.
RCU_LAZY can help battery-powered systems like the PinePhone Pro in a few ways:
1. Reduced CPU usage: Because RCU_LAZY allows readers to access shared data structures without acquiring locks or other synchronization primitives,
it reduces the amount of CPU time that is required to manage synchronization. This can be particularly beneficial in battery-powered systems,
where reducing CPU usage can extend battery life.
2. Reduced memory usage: RCU_LAZY delays the creation of multiple versions of the shared data structure until they are actually needed.
This reduces the amount of memory that is required to store these versions.
In battery-powered systems, where memory usage can be a critical resource, this can help to conserve power.
3. Reduced synchronization overhead: RCU_LAZY reduces the overhead of synchronization by delaying the creation of multiple versions of the shared data structure.
This can reduce the amount of time that is spent acquiring and releasing locks or other synchronization primitives,
which can help to conserve power in battery-powered systems.

Add a driver for the Magnachip EA8061 panel found on some Samsung
Galaxy Note II devices. Split the device trees into two (one for devices
with the already supported S6EVR02 panel and one for the new EA8061
panel).
Note: I didn't write this driver myself. Just like the old S6EVR02
driver, it has been ported from https://github.com/fourkbomb/linux
to the latest mainline Linux version.
The google-dru package provides the linux-postmarketos-rockchip as a
kernel and supports linux-firmware-ath10k linux-firmware-rockchip
packages as additional non-free firmware.
Enable the ATH10K kernel module in the kernel config
config-postmarketos-rockchip.aarch64 to enable wifi on devices such as
the Acer Chrometab 10.
