The update from 6.6.57 to 6.6.59 is consistent with the PR objectives and maintains compatibility with all existing configurations. Let's verify the changelog for any critical fixes: Please ensure that boot testing has been performed on the ODROID-C4 hardware to verify the kernel update works as expected. ✅ Verification successfulKernel version update is consistent across all board configurations The verification shows that:
While we couldn't access the kernel changelog directly, the consistent version update across all configurations indicates a coordinated and well-maintained update. Since this is a minor version bump (6.6.57 to 6.6.59), the risk of compatibility issues is minimal. Please ensure standard boot testing is performed on the target hardware before merging. 🏁 Scripts executedThe following scripts were executed for the analysis: Script: #!/bin/bash
