Hi All,
Here is the RC5 of kernel 5.14 for testing.
New:
Please note: Lscpu reports wrong values since the RC1 of kernel 5.13 on my X5000.
lscpu with the correct values before the RC1 of kernel 5.13:
lscpu with the wrong values since the RC1 of kernel 5.13:
Since the RC1 of kernel 5.13 (wrong values):

Socket(s): 3
Before (correct values):
Core(s) per socket: 4

Through the wrong values, I can't use "-smp 4" with a virtual e5500 QEMU machine with KVM HV anymore. Further information: [FSL P50x0] KVM HV doesn't work anymore
"-smp 3" works with KVM HV.

Re: Kernel 5.14
Just tested RC3 through to RC6 on my Fienix. All booted and worked fine.
The testing kernels also revealed a glitch in my boot manager. Because the testing kernels share the same name with the full kernels the kernels need to be overwritten. But the modules are different. Because of this a testing kernel really needs to be purged before hand or the modules will be left behind. And need to be removed by hand. I'll fix this in another update.
However, it does allow me to quickly install a kernel for testing, if I do them all in a row. I just need to set the default kernel to the same one installed. Install an archive over the top and replace it. Then exit, reboot and load Linux again. Like I did here on Fienix so this glitch is convenient for now.
