linux-yocto/4.1/4.4: remove innappropriate standard/base patches

2016-11-08T23:03:19+00:00

Before standard/intel/* was created in the 4.1 and 4.4 kernel trees,
some patches were merged to standard/base to add features/support for
intel platforms.

While this isn't entirely bad, there have been some compile issues
reported in some configurations. Since we don't need these commits
on standard/base, we can relocate them to make standard/base upstream
clean.

This commit removes those patches from standard/base, and restores
then to the standard/intel/* branches.

linux-yocto/4.1: fix musb compilation error

2016-06-29T18:34:45+00:00

We had a partial musb change merged into the 4.1 tree, which resulted in:

  | kernel-source/drivers/usb/musb/musb_dsps.c:
  In function 'dsps_create_musb_pdev':
  | kernel-source/drivers/usb/musb/musb_dsps.c:750:8:
  error: 'struct musb_hdrc_config' has no member named 'maximum_speed'
  |   config->maximum_speed = usb_get_maximum_speed(&parent->dev);
  |         ^~

By backporting commit:

  9b7537642cb6a [usb: musb: set the controller speed based on the config setting]

We get our missing structure field, and we can once again build musb.

linux-yocto/4.4: beaglebone: build in the usb controller drivers

2016-06-29T18:34:44+00:00

Merging the following meta data change:

[
    In the current codes, we build the drivers for usb controller as
    modules. But for some image types, such as minimal or
    full-cmdline, these driver modules are not installed to the rootfs by
    default. This makes the using of the usb pretty inconvenience. So
    make them all builtin.
