My kernel's main integration branch is 'orange-pi-$VER' (this one).
No other branch is supposed to work alone. My defconfigs are tested
and work on the boards I support. Read the README.md for more info.

Only my branches based on the current mainline kernel branch are
maintained (those are usually the -rc# kernels!). You can find the
current mainline version here https://www.kernel.org/ (mainline: ...)

My prebuilt kernels can be found at https://xff.cz/kernels/ You can
use them to test that your board works, or just run them without
bothering with building everything yourself. I run them on all my
boards.

My website is https://xnux.eu and may contain useful advice.

Good luck!

PNP fix for 5.10-rc2.

Make function names in kerneldoc comments match the actual names of
the functions that they correspond to (Mauro Carvalho Chehab).

Device properties framework fixes for 5.10-rc2

Fix the secondary firmware node handling while manipulating the
primary firmware node for a given device (Andy Shevchenko).

ACPI fixes for 5.10-rc2

 - Eliminate compiler warning emitted when building the ACPI dock
   driver (Arnd Bergmann).

   more after recent changes (Hans de Goede).

Power management fixes for 5.10-rc2

 - Modify Kconfig to prevent configuring either the "conservative"
   or the "ondemand" governor as the default cpufreq governor if
   intel_pstate is selected, in which case "schedutil" is the
   default choice for the default governor setting (Rafael Wysocki).

 - Modify the cpufreq core, intel_pstate and the schedutil governor
   to avoid missing updates of the HWP max limit when intel_pstate
   operates in the passive mode with HWP enabled (Rafael Wysocki).

 - Fix max_cstate module parameter handling in intel_idle for
   processor models with C-state tables coming from ACPI (Chen Yu).
