Hello,

Please use:

	configs/acmesystems_aria_g25: update with newer components

as the commit title.

See more comments below.

The \ is too far away here.

Please remove this last line, it's useless.

Please don't set a password. Also the information you provide here are
a bit useless. Instead, give board specific information if needed (like
how to connect to the serial port in terms of connectors). Otherwise, I
think you can just remove this paragraph.

Please keep using the headers from the kernel source, i.e:

# Linux headers same as kernel, a 4.7 series
BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_LINUX_HEADERS_CUSTOM_4_7=y

Please get rid of the custom password.

Please keep an explicit custom version for the kernel.

(same comments for the other defconfig, and the other patch)

Thanks!
