Hello all,

Here are some quality of life improvements for the rock5b board.

Patch 1: enables mdev to enable automatic module loading.
rock5b uses the arm64 defconfig where most drivers are built as modules,
however, right now there is nothing which coldplugs or hotplugs kernel
modules. Add mdev so that coldplug and hotplug works.

Patch 2: adds a new uboot-env partition on the SD-card, located after the
uboot partition. A writable uboot environment is needed in order to use
the uboot saveenv command. This way, setenv and saveenv commands can be
used to modify uboot environment variables using the uboot command prompt,
e.g. to set up a PXE boot, or to change uboots default boot order.


Kind regards,
Niklas
