Linux 6.1 has been marked LTS for a long time now. Time to bump
Linux for RaspberryPi's to the latest 6.1.61 Since April 2022
the RaspberryPi defconfigs have compressed kernel module enabled
by default. (see [1] and [2]).
To load compressed kernel modules kmod and xz packages are needed
because busybox doesn't support it.
For testing I used RaspberryPi 2, 3(32+64bit) and 4(32+64bit), all with mdev enabled.

Try to be less smart (focused on the one target/one use-case),
instead reduce the rpi-firmware package to a selectable list
of (verbatim) installed firmware files.
- change rpi-firmware config handling from rpi-variant/rpi-flavour
choices to bootcode.bin, pi-default/-extended/-cut-down and
pi4-/default/-extended/-cut-down selection
- add BR2_PACKAGE_RPI_FIRMWARE_CONFIG_FILE option to select installable
config.txt file
- remove config.txt modify code/handling from raspberry post-image.sh
script
- add different customized config.txt files to the raspberry board
section
- change dtoverlay krnbt from 'dtoverlay=miniuart-bt,krnbt=on' to extra line
with explanation comment
- change raspberry defconfigs to select appropiate rpi-firmware
and config.txt files
- change genimage-raspberrypi4.cfg/genimage-raspberrypi4-64.cfg to
use start4.elf and fixup4.dat
- update board/raspberrypi/readme.txt (add optional files fixup4.dat,
start4.elf and zImage)
With this changes a better support for custom use-cases should
be possible, specially multi-target SD cards as suggested by
Stefan Agner ([1]).

Commit 8c3f281626 (configs/rpi: fix defconfigs after upstream rebased)
attempted to point the raspberrypi defconfigs to an existing commit in
the linux rpi repository.
However, in doing so, only a partial replacement was done: the version
string in the tarball filename was not replaced (missing 'g' to the sed
expression).
Fix that now.

Branches in the Rappberry Pi linux repository are often rebased, which
means that commits that are not reachable from a reference (tag,branch)
will eventually get garbage-collected.
This is probably what hapenned with the commit we are curently
referencing in our defconfig files.
Swith to using the current HEAD of the rpi-5.10.y brnch, in lieue of the
previous one.

The pi3-minuart-bt Device Tree overlay has been renamed to
miniuart-bt, as it is useful/usable for other platforms than the
RPi3. So we use this DT overlay and rename the
--add-pi3-miniuart-bt-overlay option to --add-miniuart-bt-overlay
accordingly.

In commit ed02414e9c
("configs/raspberrypi*: bump kernel version to 5eeff139ea"), which
updated all RaspberryPi defconfigs to use Linux 4.19,
raspberrypi3_defconfig had its
BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_LINUX_HEADERS_CUSTOM_4_19 option updated, but not the
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_TARBALL_LOCATION, which still pointed to an
older Linux 4.14-based RPi kernel. This caused a build failure due to
the headers being more recent than the actual kernel being built.
This commit fixes that by using the same kernel version as all other
RPi defconfigs.

Increase the filesystem size for raspberrypi3 by setting
BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_EXT2_SIZE to "120M". The filesystem for
raspberrypi3_64 has the same size. The size is so large because the
kernel config enables many many modules.
Fixes:
Copying files into the device: __populate_fs: Could not allocate block in ext2 filesystem while writing file "services"
mkfs.ext4: Could not allocate block in ext2 filesystem while populating file system
This error is not reproducible, it seems to depend on e.g. directory
ordering.

[Thomas: adjusted on top of Yann E. Morin changes to use a tarball

The linux git trees on github can be huge, and takes a long time to
download, which is not very nice nor convenient for newcomers.
Switch them to using a wget, with the github macro.
A nice side effect of this conversion, is that we no longer need to wait
for the git clone to finish to notice that the ref is gone; doing a wget
will instantly fail in that case.
Mechanical patch, obtained by running (hang-on tight):
$ sed -r -i -e 's/BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_GIT/BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_TARBALL/; /BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_REPO_URL/N; s:BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_REPO_URL="https\://github.com/([^/]+)/(.+)"\nBR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_REPO_VERSION="(.+)":BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_TARBALL_LOCATION="$(call github,\1,\2,\3)/linux-\3.tar.gz":; s/(call github.*)\.git/\1/;' $(grep -l 'BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_REPO_URL="https://github.com' configs/*)
olimex_a20_olinuxino_lime_mali had a comment in between, so it was
manually fixed thereafter; that comment was also moved.
Except for socrates_cyclone5 which did not work previously (missing tag
in git tree?), all the affected defconfigs still download their sources.

We so far were using a Cortex-A7 as the CPU for the rpi3, as this was
the closest we had available, in 32-bit mode, to the real CPU used in
the rpi3.
But now we can also use the Cortex-A53 in 32-bit mode, so we use that,
which makes for an optimised build (A53 has an improved instruction set,
as compared to the A7).
Also drop the DTB overlay option, it defaults to 'y'.
