Package: linux-image-arm64 and linux-image-cloud-arm64
Version: 5.x and newer

We would like to use a basic Debian ARM image running on Oracle Cloud, and
the same way we currently do with x86_64 Debian image. We use the
ISCSI_IBFT module in our x86_64 image, and we would like to do the same on
ARM. We are using the linux-image-arm64 package in Debian for the kernel,
and it does not have the CONFIG_ISCSI_IBFT=m setting that we need.

Specifically we are trying to use the 5.x kernel in buster-backports
https://packages.debian.org/buster-backports/kernel/linux-image-arm64 This
points to specific kernel packages, that we would hope to have the config
option included in each build going forward

And we haven't tried it yet, but we want to start working on a Bullseye
image as well https://packages.debian.org/stable/kernel/linux-image-arm64

Ideally, we would like to get the config setting in the
linux-image-cloud-arm64 package too, since that seems to be a smaller
kernel that people sometimes prefer to use.

Would Debian kernel maintainers be able to include "CONFIG_ISCSI_IBFT=m" on
such arm kernels?
