[LEDE-DEV] [PATCH] kernel: update kernel 4.4 to version 4.4.30

@Stijn, @Hannu:
Thank you for your explanation, I got it by now and I'm totally wrong
in interpreting the mvebu-patch. Sorry for causing this flurry.

If we stick to the mvebu-patch, what I still do not understand, is why
this patch refreshing is needed here.
According to
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/diff/?id=v4.4.30&id2=v4.4&dt=2
the file arch/arm/boot/dts/Makefile has never been changed by the kernel.
So there's a local patch which makes changes to this Makefile?
What may be my problem here is, that I'm totally stuck to the kernel changelog,
which leads to my question: is it the case, that the patches getting refreshed here
are not directly related to the upstream kernel changes.
If so, wouldn't it be clearer (for people like me :) ) if there were two
seperate patches (i.e. one for kernel update+refreshes itself and one for the internal
refreshes (or refreshes that have been missed in previous updates) )?

Best regards,
P. Wassi
