Source: linux
Version: 5.10.26-1
Followup-For: Bug #985862

Testing 5.10.26-1 on a Compulab IOT-gateway board (https://www.compulab.com/products/iot-gateways/iot-gate-imx8-industrial-arm-iot-gateway/) revealed that a couple more config options are needed to support it:
 CONFIG_SERIAL_IMX_CONSOLE=y
 CONFIG_CLK_IMX8MM=y

Without these it hangs early in the boot process.

(Whilst they can be configured as modules this doesn't work
well. CONFIG_SERIAL_IMX_CONSOLE=m misses quite alot of the boot
messages and CONFIG_CLK_IMX8MM=m just makes it hang.)

(Thanks to Vincent for the testing)

Enabling these in the next upload, whenever that is, would be much appreciated.

Addendum:
There are almost certainly some other clocks needed for other hardware, but that
needs to await testing/feedback from people with access to said hardware.

Just for future reference: I believe the correspondance of config options to SOC variants is:
 IMX8MN == i.MX8M Nano
 IMX8MQ == i.MX8M Quad
IMX8QXP == i.MX8 QuadXPlus
 IMX8MP == i.MX8M Plus
