What about using 4.7-rc2 directly? By the time the next Buildroot release will be made, the final 4.7 will have been released, so you will have the opportunity to adjust the defconfig to use the final 4.7. But at least, in the mean time, we don't have to carry huge patches in Buildroot, especially feature patches (like the display controller driver), which we don't like to carry in Buildroot. Thanks!
