Hi Hauke, I am doing the work on ipq807x, I am fine with dropping the target as it's currently nothing more than a placeholder. It's progressing nicely under 5.15 as I gave up on completing the 5.10 port since it became a mess so I am waiting for 5.15 support to make a PR. Still need to figure out wired networking support for it as currently, we are using Qualcomm SSDK + NSS-DP and the rest for it. Is there any timetable for the next release so that generic 5.15 can land?
