- Various ancient SCSI drivers were removed
- BT_HCIBTUART and INFINIBAND_CXGB3_DEBUG were removed
- OMAP_DM_TIMER is now an automatic symbol
- Marvell NAND driver was rewritten, so we enable MTD_NAND_MARVELL
instead of MTD_NAND_PXA3xx
- Various netfilter symbols are now boolean instead of tristate
Reduce armel image size by:
- Set CONFIG_CRYPTO_MANAGER_DISABLE_TESTS=y
- Change MTD, MTD_CMDLINE_PARTS, RTC_DRV_MV, and SPI_ORION from
built-in to module.
- Disable VT, ZSWAP, RD_BZIP2, and RD_LZMA.
So qnap support is back.
Thanks to Leigh Brown <leigh@solinno.co.uk> for his idea to disable VT.
(cherry picked from commit a4fdfa09ce)
- Change CONNECTOR from built-in to module, and disable PROC_EVENTS
- Disable INTEGRITY and dependent options
- video: Disable USB_APPLEDISPLAY, BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
This still only gets us down to 99.26% of maximum size, so further
changes will be needed soon.
- [alpha] fbdev: Re-enable FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE as built-in
- [armel] fbdev: Explicitly disable FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE, as it can no longer
be a module
- [arm64] Re-enable MMC_QCOM_DML
- Change RC_CORE back to being a module
- power/supply: Enable BATTERY_BQ27XXX and BATTERY_BQ27XXX_HDQ as modules,
replacing W1_SLAVE_BQ27000
Clean up with kconfigeditor2 and delete obsolete symbols.
Change MTD_OF_PARTS, MTD_BLOCK, and MTD_PHYSMAP_OF from built-in
to modules.
And, also change all RTC related except RTC_DRV_MV, which includes
RTC_DRV_DS1307, RTC_DRV_RS5C372, RTC_DRV_PCF8563, RTC_DRV_M41T80,
and RTC_DRV_S35390A, to modules. Because most marvell boards use
RTC_DRV_MV.
This will save about 3MB on linux Image (before compression).
u-boot loader on some armel devices has limitation that:
- kernel image size <= 2MB (already described in
debian/config/armel/defines)
- kernel size after decompression <= 7MB

Merge tag 'debian/4.9.25-1'
Drop the added patches, which are already in 4.11.
CONFIG_NFP_NETVF is replaced by CONFIG_NFP in 4.11.
Various free and proprietary AV products use this feature and users
apparently want it. But punting access checks to userland seems like
an easy way to deadlock the system, and there will be nothing we can
do about that. So warn and taint the kernel if this feature is
actually used.
