Richard/Saul,

Every relase, TomZ's BSP tools manage to uncover something up with kernel
management tweaks .. they are a great regression test.

This time is no exception. We found an issue with BSPs that inherit and branch
from qemuppc. The fix is in the tools, and is a minor tweak to the way that
a series of non "git am" patches are handled when importing them to the
tree.

I did regression tests via my other patching layers, and all shows fine with
this fix in place.

Cheers,

Bruce

Updating the kern-tools SRCREV to import the following change:

    kgit-s2q: always update ORIG_HEAD after applying changes

    In situations where git am fails to apply patches, and git apply is used,
    we must update ORIG_HEAD as well as HEAD. This is required, since if the
    next patch in the queue also fails git am application, it will reset to
    ORIG_HEAD before using git apply. If we haven't updated ORIG_HEAD, we'll
    end up warping back to the top of the branch each time.

This problem can only be seen in very specific situations, in particular if
a generated BSP branches from qemuppc, and has a series of non git "am able"
patches. We fail, since all of the qemuppc patches are not applied due to
the branch head constantly being reset.
