What are the chances of getting these patches merged "upstream" by the
board vendor ? It's not really nice if we have to keep these patches
forever.

This script is not needed, you can use support/scripts/genimage.sh
instead.

Why do you select glibc, and leave Buildroot default ?

As said above, you can use support/scripts/genimage.sh instead.
