Hi, Tianrui,

I hope this can be the last review and the next version can get upstreamed. :)

The cross tools should be updated to the latest one, because we need
binutils 2.41 now.

Please update the base to at least v6.6-rc1.

QEMU base should also be updated.

Update any binaries if needed, too.

I will do a full test after v21 of this series, and I hope this can
move things forwards.
