Package: flash-kernel
Version: 3.102
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

To make it simpler to run plain Debian on the Librem 5 it would be great
to have flash-kernel support. The device tree is in the process of being
upstreamed:

    https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20200731082725.21878-1-martin.kepplinger@puri.sm/

Patch at:

    https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/flash-kernel/-/merge_requests/22

Remaining blockers for using plain Debian are uboot and atf support but
the uboot/atf shipped with the device is able to boot Debian kernels
just fine.

Cheers,
 -- Guido
