This PR is re-created as discussed in the previously-closed one: PR#512. The referred archive is manually collected for now, and we may need a CI/CD system for our best interest.

tar cannot change ownership to uid xxx, gid xxx

Just add --owner=0 --group=0 when you package it :-)

With https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/4454 now fixed, we should be able to use the upstream overlay right and modules from 5.10.50 onwards.

However, we are on the latest kernel 5.4.yy currently available via rpi-firmware (5.4.83), and since they have moved to 5.10.yy, don't think we are going to get prebuilt 5.4.yy kernel with the module included. So we would still always need to build the snd-soc-wm8960 module externally as long as we are on 5.4.yy. Which considering https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/4108, might be some time :-(

So tl;dr; lets merge this, and remove it when we move to 5.10.yy.
