Tested 4b0abedc88b0 ("Linux 5.10.212-rc1") on:
- arm i.MX6ULL (Armadillo 640)
- arm64 i.MX8MP (Armadillo G4)

For some reason the wlan interface didn't come up on the arm32 board
(brcmfmac brought up through usb, mainline driver), which is something I
hadn't observed before, but I've just rebooted a dozen of times and it's
always been up after that *and* I don't see anything in this stable
release that sounds like it could be related so I'll blame it on a
glitch to look further into, and not something related...
(I'll report back again if I find something more convincing, trying to
get a second occurence at least... if I can reproduce I'll confirm it
reproduce on 5.10.211 first then keep digging but it looks like that'll
take a while)

No obvious regression in dmesg or basic tests:
