I'd say this is not appropriate to be in postmarketOS because
this is just a bog standard x86 computer, it has UEFI BIOS and
everything, and you can just boot a Linux distro on a USB
stick.
It also has a 64-bit UEFI unlike some other tablet, so there
should be no issue installing a Linux distro with a fairly
modern kernel these days.
So, let's just drop it and forget this port even existed.
The charging script does nothing other than annoy a few people,
so get rid of it.
While at it, let's remove hybris reference from the APKBUILD as
hybrisOS is dead.

Powerful beast with Snapdragon 855 - 8 cores up to 2.8 GHz,
6 Gb RAM and fast UFS storage.
Mainline port is bare minimum (UART, framebuffer display, physical
keys, USB network). No storage support yet (UFS refuses to work)

Downstream kernel will not be maintained really, but useful for
exploring stuff. This kernel is at version 4.14 and can be
compiled with recent gcc versions though, so not that bad.
USB rndis works, touchscreen too, but no display (framebuffer,
/dev/fb0 is not present at all). Internal storage works, also
battery/charging.
I usually end up installing it on new installs. Why not enable it by
default and have a more polished experience for users? Most users will
use a gtk app and/or use the gtk file chooser
Device uses mainline kernel. What works:
- boots
- pstore log
- simple framebuffer
- storage including sdcard
* payload mock device tree:
Payload mock device tree is needed to mock device tree,
when we're overriding linux with u-boot in android boot image.
Stock bootloader needs this dtb appended to gzipped u-boot.
Bootscript is a simple hush shell script, dedicated to boot OS.
It may be customized to implement dual boot or to change kernel
command line.
mesa-egl is usually installed by dependencies of ui packages, but when
choosing the "none" ui option in pmbootstrap, it isn't selected, leading
to libEGL.so.1 not being found.
Add it as an explicit dependency.

To make panel driver upstreamable to mainline linux, we need to use
proper panel selection in secondary bootloader (still TODO), and
therefore lk2nd will be strictly required to boot mainline port.
Switch flashing method to fastboot, enable sparse rootfs generation,
and depend on lk2nd package.
Depends on: postmarketOS/pmbootstrap!2174, to provide full
integration of lk2nd in pmbootstrap.
So, full flashing procedure for samsung-klte will look like:
$ pmbootstrap init
$ pmbootstrap install
$ pmbootstrap flasher --method=heimdall-bootimg flash_lk2nd
$ pmbootstrap flasher flash_kernel --no-install
$ pmbootstrap flasher flash_rootfs
$ fastboot reboot
This removes u-boot from our image and allows booting via an
UEFI-compatible platform firmware instead. So to flash pmOS on the PPP
now we will require the user to flash Tow-Boot to the SPI. See the edge
post for more information.

Add option for mainline kernel iso downstream kernel. Note that a lot is
not working yet due to incomplete devicetree, so this is for development
purposes only.
Add and rearrange dependencies with new apps, and fix angelfish package
name.
Adds the following packages to extras:
- alligator (rss reader)
- kasts (podcasts)
- tokodon (mastodon client)
Move neochat from a required to an extra dependency, since it's a
matrix client (which many people may not need).
Add plasma-mobile-sounds to main dependency, so that kclock (and dialer
in the future) have sounds to choose from.
Rename plasma-angelfish to angelfish dependency since plasma-angelfish
was renamed in alpine at some point.
Remove the part of the description of the package that says numeric
passwords are required (no longer the case).
When moving the code to it's own repo I changed the license to GPL-2.0,
I forgot to update the APKBUILD.

It seems like at least samsung-a5 needs the same "facility lock"
workaround as samsung-serranove, otherwise ModemManager can not detect
the SIM card correctly. Move it to a subpackage of soc-qcom-msm8916
and apply it to samsung-a3 as well just to be sure.
So far this issue seems limited to Samsung devices, at least bq-paella
is not affected (tested with the same SIM card), so it does not seem
right to apply it unconditionally to all devices.

Now that internal storage is supported, we actually need a 4096 sector
size, otherwise kpartx won't work on internal partitions.
