4.20.x is not a long term support kernel, but 4.19.x is (supported until end
2020):
https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html
With the upcoming Buildroot 2019.02 release being a LTS release, default to
4.19.x instead.
Notice: The userspace API breakage in net_stamp.h causing build failures has
now been fixed in 4.19.14 by commit e4a2ffe9029fd (net: Use
__kernel_clockid_t in uapi net_stamp.h)

[Thomas: add comment in linux/Config.in and
package/linux-headers/Config.in.host so that we don't mistakenly bump
to 4.20+.]

This patch adds a simple way to change the linux bootup logo.
The patch was kept purposely simple to support only the use cause
where a user needs a color linux boot up logo.

This issue only applies to kernels built with CONFIG_THUMB2=y, so reword the
comment to make that more clear.
Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <peter@korsgaard.com>
Commit f13477b (linux: config.in: add comment for Arm Cortex-M) added a
comment so that the user that the linux kernel may miscompile with
binutils 2.29+, when the target is an armv7m CPU.
However, the real trigger is a compilation in thumb2 mode, which happens
to be the only option for armv7m CPUs.
We can't know whether the kernel will be built in arm or thumb2 mode,
though, because we do not have that information: it is only available in
the Linux' .config file, which we don;t have access to at the time we
run our menuconfig.
So, relax the conditions under which the comment is made, so that it
appears as soon as binutils are >= 2.29 (i.e. not 2.28, which is the
oldest we support) for ARM CPUs.

This reverts commit cbe43fd417.
Now that the binutils default has been changed for ARMv7M, this is no longer
needed.

When binutils > 2.28 are selected on Arm Cortex-M cpu,
linux kernel does not boot due to a new implementation
of 'adr pseudo instruction' on binutils.
