Changes:
- Kernel side support for ModemManager
- Picked upcoming patch series for 5.15 + fixes, theoretically
improving GPU perf
- Updated patch series from lists
- Enabled options needed to support WayDroid (network stuff maybe still
missing???)
- Fixes venus fw paths, firmware packages need to updated to support it
but this will enable HW video decoding!
- Cleanup the defconfigs
- Rebase on v5.14-rc7
- Upstreamed more patches
- Enable Jack detection kctls for msm8916 devices
- Probably many other things I forgot :)
Device changes:
- gt5 family:
- Added fuel-gauge support
- Added sensors (Accelerometer, Light)

- gt510lte - Added support for LTE variant
- gt58 - New device
- gt58lte - Support for LTE variant

- longcheer-l8150: Fix Jack detection
Disable the hostname management feature of NetworkManager. This isn't
useful for the postmarketOS use case, where we set one hostname in
/etc/hostname via pmbootstrap and want it to be used. (It makes more
sense for normal PCs, which may just have the hostname 'localhost' at
the end of the installation and then not be unique in the network.)
NetworkManager is supposed to only change the hostname if it is set to
localhost, however this detection does not work properly in
postmarketOS. I've skimmed through sources of elogind, NetworkManager
and OpenRC a bit and found that in OpenRC the definitive location to put
the hostname is /etc/hostname. The other path, /etc/conf.d/hostname, is
just a fallback. Experiments show that setting something in
/etc/conf.d/hostname does prevent NM from setting a hostname offered by
the DHCP server, but it's not clear to my why this happens. I suspect
elogind + dbus. Disabling this feature we don't need anyway seems like a
good approach to me without wasting too much time here.
Previously it was assumed that with the counter and the sleep 0.1 the
process would take about 10 seconds to complete. On newer devices with
tens or even hundreds of partitions going through all partitions already
takes a significant amount of time, so change the logic to measure the
time elapsed instead.
This fixes DNS when a system is connected to a pmOS device as a hotspot.
The rule is in the default set of firewall rules, instead of a
subpackage.. I think this is OK. I don't believe anything should be
listening on port 53 except when the hotspot is running...
This directory is specified by the XDG Base Directory specification

So let's actually do this. This way also binaries installed by e.g. Pip
or Cargo will be usable out-of-the-box rather than that the user has to
figure out why it's not appearing in their PATH.

The flavor string was naively parsed using sed by removing everything
before the first hyphen, this breaks for -rc kernels. Instead lets glob
/usr/share/kernel for the installed kernel flavor. This will also
prevent the kernel being flashed if the running kernel has a different
localversion than the updated one.

Add ttyescape, a script and triggerhappy configuration to allow mobile device
users to access and use a shell without having to plug in to a computer.
One of the largest limitations with a mobile device is the lack of keyboard, for
mainstream OSs like Android and iOS, this is a non-issue as the whole OS stack
is built to automatically recover in case of a crash / hang, hiding the internal
state of affairs from users and making use of careful design to minimise the
impact. When bringing Linux to mobile, we carry not only the benefits of the
Linux desktop but also it's limitations. In the event that your desktop manager
goes haywire or hangs completely, or your graphics drivers get unhappy, the
ability to quickly jump to a tty and start killing bad behaving programs or
reset your display manager is one that most of us take for granted. But when
hit by similar errors on a mobile device there is no such recourse available,
users either have to reboot and hope that the issue doesn't occur again, or pull
out a laptop and pull up a shell (assuming ssh is enabled and the rndis
interface comes up).
ttyescape proposes to solve this issues by pieceing together several already
available tools, notably:
- triggerhappy, a tool used to perform actions when
certain buttons or key combinations are pressed with no dependencies on the
display manager in use.
- fbkeyboard, a framebuffer keyboard for tty's, it
renders on top of the current tty and uses the device touchscreen as input.
gzip results in a boot.img that's too big (over 8 MB) for e.g.
samsung-i9300, so let's replace it with something that produces
smaller kernels. With this, the entire boot.img is 6,3 MB (down
from 8MiB, or 8.5458944 MB) which leaves plenty of space on the
8 MB partition and prevents the recovery from being overwritten
when this kernel is flashed.
Tested and works on samsung-i9300.

The networkmanager hotspot needs to have DHCP input enabled on the wifi
interfaces so the temporary dnsmasq instance can work. The
networkmanager backend is also switched to the nftables one so it can
create the ad-hoc hotspot forwarding/masquerade table.
Proper fix for the monospace fonts seen when postmarketos-ondev is
installed without also installing osk-sdl. This doesn't happen anymore
with pmbootstrap install --ondev, because it will always pull in osk-sdl
again for other reasons. However, since postmarketos-ondev is using this
font, let's directly depend on it instead of having it pulled in as side
effect of also having osk-sdl installed.
And extend bootloader CMDLINE per default, giving us the option to
change the CMDLINE both via the kernel config and from samsung's
S-BOOT shell.
Note: the default console in exynos_defconfig (which this config is
based on) is ttySAC1, but all midas devices uses ttySAC2, so set it to
ttySAC2 instead. Also remove all other variables. They are not needed,
and (at least) root=/dev/ram0 seem to prevent us from booting pmos.

NymphCast is a FOSS Chromecast replacement (not a drop-in one though)
and allows you to "cast" audio and video to your device running the
nymphcast server. Plasma Bigscreen seems like an ideal use-case for this
so let's install and launch it by default. People can always uninstall
it anyways
This allows using lm_sensors to read temperature data on the pinebook

5.13.5 had some rockchip-related fixes in the changelog, so I figured
why not upgrade to it.
These patches from Manjaro seem to be the bare minimum required to get
usb-c charging and device peripherial support working again (external
display still doesn't work)

llvm was left over from Martijn's efforts to reduce the kernel size
The drivers for external DP are enabled here, but all patches from
manjaro that deal with DP/typec alt mode, etc are dropped since they do
not solve anything on their own and may cause display instability
issues...
