I am a bit perplex, because this patch doesn't update the kernel
version anywhere. It updates the U-Boot version, the AT91Bootstrap
version, the version of the kernel headers, but not the kernel itself.
I don't really see how this can work, as the kernel headers version
will no longer match the kernel version, and also the commit title that
says we're bumping to linux4sam_6.1 is incorrect in that regard.

See here, we're still using Linux tagged in version linux4sam_5.8, and
not linux4sam_6.1.

Could you fix this and send an updated version ?

Thanks!

Thomas
