Issues:
=======
The custom Radxa kernel provides custom code to support WiFi. However,
that code does not compile with GCC 12, which is the current default
version in buildroot. Hence, the WiFi kernel drivers are disabled, until
the issues get fixed (if ever). If they are desperately needed, one may
apply the following workaround, as long as buildroot still supports GCC
version 11:
1. Set GCC version 11, by adding the following line to
configs/rock5b_defconfig:
BR2_GCC_VERSION_11_X=y
2. Re-enable custom WiFi drivers by removing the following line from
board/radxa/rock5b/linux.fragment:
# CONFIG_WL_ROCKCHIP is not set
