[Buildroot] [PATCH] configs/beaglebone: bump kernel and U-Boot versions

[Yann E. MORIN]

Vincent, All,

On 2021-05-16 20:09 +0200, Vincent Stehlé via buildroot spake thusly:
> - Bump kernel to version 5.10.30-ti-r3.
> - Bump U-Boot to version 2021.04.
> 
> Add mdev to the beaglebone_defconfig. This gives us automatic USB support,
> as the omap2plus kernel has most drivers as modules.
> 
> While at it, enable VFPv3 with 32 registers (instead of 16) and add a few
> comments to the defconfig.

Applied to next, thanks.

Good enough for me, thanks!

mdev is OK.

I tend to prefer that we have 'raw' defconfig files, i.e. ones that we
directly get from running 'make savedefconfig'. However, a few others
prefer cefconfigs that have comments, so I've applied your patch with
comments.

TBH, I would like we get rid of comments, because it makes it more
difficult to maintain and update defconfig files... But that's for
another series, if at all...

Thanks! :-)

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
