Well, on i.MX6, as far as know, you can't get OpenGL support with a
mainline kernel. So even though I definitely support and encourage
people to use mainline kernels, I believe for Buildroot defconfigs, it
sometimes makes sense to use the vendor kernel when it is absolutely
necessary to enable certain important features, like 3D acceleration.
Best regards,
Thomas
