Hi,

this week in other news:

- a few general LinuxKPI changes (some comitted some outstanding)

- finished updating all drivers to Linux v5.8 (incl. LinuxkPI
  adjustments)

- resumed talks about vendor imports

- exchanged emails with re@ in order to figure out how to efficiently
  do rebuilds so I can finally add firmware to the install media and
  test that.
  (this will allow us to purely distribute firmware from ports)

- checked Intel cards in dedicated M.2 slots on an arm64 board and they
  showed the same problems as in my large test setup (see last week's
  email); so I know it is not related to that and will need
  investigation.

- tried hrs' xHCI debug in the hpoe that we could get console on a
  modern Laptop without serial;  managed to establish a connection from
  his binary-only loader component while testing with three laptops;
  screwed up one of my development laptops in the same go (almost recvered;
  I am still short a XHCI Root Hub which makes it painful to use currently).
  It is unclear how much effort is needed in order to make this useful.
  I'll keep plotting in the background but it likely won't be in time to
  debug suspend/resume for 14.1-R anymore :(

- I am hoping to push the driver updates to github as soon as the
  general LinuxKPI changes are sorted.

- PR handling and various direct emails and some packet loss (sorry).

Lots of health,
Bjoern
