[Buildroot] [PATCH 01/11] package/mender-grubenv: add busybox fancy sync fixup

[Buildroot] [PATCH 01/11] package/mender-grubenv: add busybox fancy sync fixup

[Adam Duskett]

This prevents multiple `sync: ignoring all arguments` warnings
when the `grub-mender-grubenv-set` script is called when a
system that uses busybox sync installs a mender update.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 07/11] board/mender: change device type to compatible-types

Newer versions of mender-artifact echo deprecation warnings when using
the --device-type argument and tell users to use --compatible-types.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 08/11] board/mender/x86_64/post-image-efi.sh: do not prepend artifact name to mender image

[Adam Duskett]

Do not prepend ${COMPATIBLE_TYPES} to the user-specified artifact
name. Especially since compatible types can be added multiple times
to mender-artifact.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 09/11] board/mender/x86_64: add a udev rule to create /dev/root

[Adam Duskett]

As /dev/root does not appear automatically, add a rule to
create /dev/root. Without this rule, even running a simple command
outputs the following warning:

```
WARN[0000] Could not resolve path link: /dev/root Attempting to continue
WARN[0000] Could not resolve path link: /dev/root Attempting to continue
```

Just like the generate_mender_bootstrap_artifact method in

[Buildroot] [PATCH 11/11] test_mender/post-build.sh: use /etc/mender/device_type

[Adam Duskett]

To keep parody with board/mender/x86_64/overlay/etc/mender/mender.conf,
change /var/lib/mender/device_type to /etc/mender/device_type and
add a /etc/mender/mender.conf file.

Hi Thomas;

Probably the initial commit? I'm not sure how it was missed and I can only
find one instance
of it failing on the autobuilders
