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.

BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DTB_OVERLAY_SUPPORT is now forcefully selected by
BR2_PACKAGE_RPI_FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DTB_OVERLAYS when the kernel is in
charge of building DTBs (BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DTS_SUPPORT=y). So enabling
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DTB_OVERLAY_SUPPORT is no longer needed in the 64-bit
defconfigs for Raspberry Pi 3 and 4.

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

accordingly.

Enables the usage of the standard Raspberry Pi overlays (as already
possible for all 32bit defconfigs and as expected by most Raspberry Pi
defconfig users), follow up patch will use the overlay feature to
enable the ttyS0 serial console in the same way as done for the
raspberrypi3_defconfig case (instead using an alternative approach).

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.

This change deprecates the ext2/3/4 rootfs size in blocks symbol in
favor of one that mimic the fs-size argument behavior of mkfs (i.e.
size in a human readable format accepting k, m, g or t suffix or their
upper-case variants).
This change also updates the defconfigs that used to set
BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_EXT2_BLOCKS symbol.

This configuration builds a 64bit image for RaspberryPi 3.
The size of the ext4 filesystem has to be extended to fit the large amount
(~60MB) of kernel modules enabled in the defconfig.
