https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-riscv/+bug/1975592/+attachment/5678616/+files/linux-meta-riscv.patch

** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  integrate linux-allwinner patches into linux-riscv kernel
  
  [Test]
  * Newly built images should boot and work on both nezha and licheerv
  * Upgraded systems using old images should reboot and work on both nezha and 
licheerv
  * Once this migrates, mantic+ livecd-rootfs can be improved to use generic 
kernel
  
  [Regression potential]
  Ensure this new build of linux-riscv doesn't regress on existing supported 
systems (sifive & qemu)

+ scope:
+ linux-riscv https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2023-May/139655.html

+ [Implementation details]
+ * linux[-image]-allwinner depends on new enough generic kernel with allwinner 
support pull request applied; and on an updated u-boot-nezha package
+ 
+ * new enough u-boot-nezha package ensures that MMC driver is included in
+ the initramfs, and triggers initramfs update at the end of the apt
+ transaction
+ 
+ * End result, nezha/licheerv systems switch from tracking allwinner
+ kernel to tracking generic kernel with initrd that contains MMC driver
+ which used to be built-in.
