[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/2] board/pc/linux.config: Add framebuffer and pci support

[Adam Duskett]

These small options allow the pc defconfigs to boot using default
virtual machine manager KVM options.

Let's use a more modern kernel with a broader range of hardware support
for PCs.

I've added a little blurb about why we use 6.1 and not 6.2, and applied
to master, thanks.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.

These new options are not specific to running in a VM; they also apply
to running on reald hardware (and that's arguably where they are more
interesting, in fact).

I dropped this sentence (it was part of the previous commit!), and I
replaced it with an explanation why we choose to enable each of these
options.

Applied to master, thanks.

Adam, All,

+Jan-Benedict for BZ #15586

On 2023-04-13 10:04 -0700, Adam Duskett spake thusly:

This also probably needs BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_NEEDS_HOST_LIBELF.
