Me too. There is already a RPI2 kernel Profile in /sys/arm/conf/. But there
is no way to boot such kernel, the u-boot bootloader is not compatible to the
Cortex-A7. Linux (rasbian) is using two different kernels for bcm2835 and
the new bcm2836 (which includes A7) (which are booted directly at this stage
instead of u-boot). So we need also two u-boot binaries?
I'm not sure what else is missing.
