This device package is intended to replace the tablet-x*uefi device
packages. It was made by basically merging config from those two
packages.
One important change (besides the name, covered later) is that it
replaces grub-efi with sd-boot for these devices.
The pkgver is starting at '8' to get ahead of the packages this is meant
to replace.
Because package names, especially for device packages(!), is important,
here's a long explanation of why the name is "device-generic-x86_64":
"uefi" was excluded from the device package name, because it should (in
theory at least...) be able to simultaneously support EFI and non-EFI
boot in 1 device package. The device-qemu-amd64 package kiiiinda does
this already and could be a useful example for how to do that, though in
this situation we'd need to support syslinux for legacy boot instead of
what qemu does (bypass installed bootloader and directly boot the
kernel). In other words, the packages this one is meant to replace only
support EFI boot, they currently don't support legacy boot. So IF we
need to support legacy boot in the future and IF there's no way to
support both in one package, THEN we can consider changing the name of
this one or calling the other "-legacy" or something.
"x86_64" instead of "amd64" (like the device-qemu-amd64 device package),
because "x86_64" is what Alpine uses to refer to this arch, and it
doesn't have a hw vendor name baked into it.
"tablet" was dropped from the name, because there are many other x86_64 devices
out there that people might want to install pmOS. For example, it might be
confusing if you want to install pmOS on an x86_64 toaster but best
pmOS image for it is named "device-tablet-..."
This replaces the outdated blobs extracted from Android vendor partitions with more recent firmware provided in the linux-firmware-brcm package.

Start squashing all the .mdt files into .mbn and install those. Keep
installing compatibility symlinks so old and new kernel versions can
work with the firmware - the kernel detects the correct format anyways.

Currently, the build fails with the following error message:
arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S: Assembler messages:
arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S:346: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `#'
make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:343: arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.o] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:952: arch/arm/mm] Error 2
This is because in binutils package, starting with version 2.41, stopped
supporting Sun/Solaris style flags on section directive.
To fix that, use a patch that replaces this with the GNU style flags,
partly backported from mainline.

For some reason we don't have dtb subdirectories.

This device port uses U-Boot as a basic bootloader. Users should install
U-Boot and reinstall pmOS to the U-Boot version of port (this one).
Thus an upgrade from old installations that depend on old vendor bootloader
is not implemented.
Instruction how to install U-Boot can be found on dedicated page of
pmOS wiki.

Also disable some drivers and subsystems in the kernel configuration
that are generally unused on the platform, according to the

Linux 6.7-rc1 looks for the venus (video) firmware in

Let's install it in both places with a symlink so that the firmware
packages work for both older and newer Linux versions.

The mainline port has almost reached full feature parity with the
downstream port. Default to mainline in new installations, but keep
downstream around as it'll still be needed for bringing up the currently
missing features.
GPS on milletwifi is via the "modem", which doesn't have any cell model
support, but is similar. This starts the modem remoteproc to support
GPS output.

Firmware drivers will load too early, before msm-firmware-loader, so they
won't load the necessary firmware. Instead, mark them as modules so they load
later in the boot process, when the firmware is available.
BINFMT_MISC for running qemu on this system, and HIDRAW is used for some
USB devices. ETHERNET lets me use usb NICs, since this device does not
have a rj45 port/onboard NIC.

And don't bother disabling the gpsd service given how unlikely it is
that someone is doing something serious with this device, let alone
having it in the first place. Plus, it's in testing.

Package adsp, modem and wifi firmware for mainline. Compatibility with
downstream firmware is not kept on purpose, if somebody wants this,
please make some subpackage for it!
Tested on the V0.2 variant of the hardware which comes with some U-Boot
build preinstalled. I don't know if this will be the case for the final
version that will be shipped to customers, but the announecment would
imply so given that it says the device "incorporates a advanced [sic]
BIOS compatible with UEFI".

This includes the "Alta" and "Solitude" boards, the latter of which I
also introduce a device package for in a later patch. It should be easy
to introduce support for the former, but I don't have the hardware to
test that on.
The two new patches have been merged and will be included in Linux 6.7
as I understand.
I cannot maintain this device because I do not have it, but it is
similar to the Pixel 3a, which I can maintain.
Move the kernel into a subpackage in case support for a different panel
