OpenBMC Linux 6.6

[Tao Ren]

Hi Joel,

Finally I got chance to sanity test Linux 6.6 on my AST2600 BMC, and
everything looks good so far.

I'm also planning to move all the Meta Network AST2400 and AST2500 BMC
platforms to Linux 6.6, but I need to upgrade yocto at first (we are
still running dunfell, which doesn't seem to be compatible with 6.6).
Anyways, I will update back if I found problems.

Again, thank you for maintaining the OpenBMC kernel tree!


Cheers,

Tao
