Renesas defconfig maintained by Geert

When building in mainline, almost all of the Renesas drivers in the default /arch/arm64/configs/defconfig file are set to build as modules. This means after kernel boot, you are expected to load all those modules, as well as you will not see the boot log on the screen while you boot. However, you can use this defconfig in order to make a kernel that is only Renesas things, and the driver set to build/load as static instead of modules.

$ cd arch/arm64/configs
$ wget https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/geert/renesas-devel.git/tree/arch/arm64/configs/renesas_defconfig?h=topic/renesas-defconfig
$ cd ../../..
$ make -j24 O=.out renesas_defconfig
$ make -j24 O=.out all
