Automatic kernel config rewrite

[github-actions]

Rewrite kernel configs

What this PR does

• Regenerates and synchronizes Linux kernel config fragments across boards/families based on the prepared inventory.
• Runs ./compile.sh rewrite-kernel-config for each scheduled (family, branch) and aggregates all changes into one PR.
• No userspace changes; only Kconfig option updates (enable/disable/modules/values) aligned with the targeted kernel branches.

How it was produced

This PR is produced from this GHA script.

1. Built a matrix: ./compile.sh inventory-boards (deduped, sanitized).
2. Executed rewrite-kernel-config per matrix.
3. Collected only changed files from each job as artifacts; aggregated and committed them here.

Review tips

• Skim the table below for big deltas; open those configs to verify intent.
• If a particular change is undesirable, comment on that file and we can exclude/adjust and re-run.

@vidplace7 Please review change in rv1106 as there are many changes.

[rpardini]

Could we re-run this after #8891 and #8892 are merged?

[igorpecovnik]

Sure. I think you also have rights to do that.

[rpardini]

Looks much better now.

the rv1106-vendor stuff seems drastic, probably because it was very outdated. If I understand, rv1106 is an armhf version using rk vendor kernel, and used for very RAM-limited boards. We might need to have a way to opt-out from (some?) for armbian-kernel.sh for those usecases.

I'd merge anyway, and rv1106 can individually revert and rework later if needed.

Still compiles / boots fine. Memory usage appears to be the same.

The only concerning thing here to me is that all of the USB wifi driver modules have been removed? 😬 How can I get those to persist?
I want attempting to manually include all of the usb based chipsets as =m to give some flexibility to the user (since it did not seem to make a large difference in kernel memory usage)

Weird indeed. I didn't find a quick solution, so I removed this kernel from automation. Testing atm.

I rework the script that knows exceptions now. Closing this PR in favor of #8895
