We used to have it at 40% and just bumped it to 100%. With 100%, I can
hear static noise in the headphones when using the PinePhone (pmOS CE)
in a silent room, even if I turn the volume down in Pulseaudio (e.g.
18%-30% in Phosh). This was not the case when we had it at 40%.
70% seems to be the sweet spot, where no static noise can be heard when
using headphones in a silent room, but where volume can still be turned
up to a very high level if necessary.
Ported succesfully to armv7. Everything that worked on armhf
works on armv7 as well: touch, wifi, usb networking etc.
SWRast (gallium) was not enabled but is needed because the device
does not support 3D acceleration yet.

Patches rebased, and includes some new fixes:
arm64-dts-imx8mq-librem5.dtsi-adjust-the-usdhc-bus-s.patch
- Being tested by Purism as well, has shown some promise improving GPS
reliability
arm64-dts-imx8mq-disable-SuperSpeed-instances-in-par.patch
- Fixes issue with modem disappearing
This is required for kernels earlier than 4.7 for bwrap to work for
normal users, and therefore for gnome web (epiphany) and flatpak.

Note, previous wifi driver behavior is not changed. The redpine module
still expects the fw to be in /lib/firmware on boot, and won't use the
fw on the card.. Theoretically this kernel version now supports both
loading fw from rootfs into ram AND using fw burned on the chip, but
since I haven't tested that well yet I'm leaving this as-is.

uboot-tools is provided by u-boot-tools but sometimes apk still gets
confused. This change prevents errors such as
pine64-pinephone:~$ sudo apk upgrade --verbose

The AP6359SA is a BCM4359 SDIO-based Wi-Fi/Bluetooth module that PINE64
sells specifically for the ROCKPro64 device. This commit starts a
firmware package to support it specifically, while others can later add
firmware for other modules sold for the device. Also add this package as
a nonfree subpackage dependency in the ROCKPro64 device APKBUILD.
I was unable to find a suitable license for the firmware blobs, so until
we find a suitable repository containing all of the required files by
the module with a license included, or contact the vendor directly,
let's use LibreELEC's repository without a license for now.

mce is used by both Glacier and Asteroid to do all kind of power
management related stuff, including blanking the display. However,
obviously we don't ever want to blank the display on Qemu

The redpine interrupt handler patch has been dropped since it's now
merged in Purism's tree.

As of MR 2039, the kernel modules are now stripped (INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1).
It turns out that this massively reduces their size so that including
the panel + touchscreen modules in the initfs still fits into the
partition. This allows the splash screen and osk-sdl to work correctly.
