The openbmc kernel will move to a 5.14 based tree for Aspeed and
Nuvoton machines.

    linux-openbmc: Move to Linux v5.14

    This moves the OpeNBMC kernel to a v5.14 base. There are 78 patches in
    the tree, plus a the MCTP core and device tree changes that were merged
    in v5.15 which have been backported.

Welcome to the party to the MCTP core, the first new subsystem to be
added to mainline for the bmc since we added FSI support in 2017.

While the v5.14 tree is not LTS like the v5.10 kernel was, it is
necessary to keep pushing forward the version to ensure upstream
development integrated back into the openbmc tree.

Cheers,

Joel
