Thanks for your tips and links Philipp and Russell!

My distro of choice is Arch and so really I should try to install the
patched git kernel "the Arch way" so my first question is, does anyone
on this list have an Arch PKGBUILD script to create a linux (4.x) git
kernel package for imx6 alikes?

If the answer to that is no then I think I'm most of the way to having
created one based upon https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/linux-git/
but I'm missing a suitable kernel .config file. I tried putting

make imx_v6_v7_defconfig

Into the PKGBUILD but that didn't work out and the ALARM imx6 kernel
config is for kernel 3.14 so I can't use that either.

Thanks
