odroid/xu: use mainline kernel #282

Closed paralin closed 1 year ago

Try using the mainline kernel on the Odroid XU4.

Tested on Odroid XU4 and appears to work correctly.

This appears to work fine. However, there's a long list of commits on the odroid branch related to xu4 that we would drop:

I don't know if any of this is relevant, however, a few things stand out:

Running the mainline kernel:

The main question @danyer is if this fixes your USB issue. If so, we can start to figure out which commits on the tobetter branch break it, and get rid of those. I still think keeping these XU4 patches would be the better option, and continuing to use the tobetter branch for all odroids would be better than using mainline for just 1 of the boards.

While this works on mainline I will close for now since there's no inherent advantage to using this over the skiffos tobetter branch. That branch has some xu4-related patches that I think are still relevant today.
