Hello Neil,

the kernel is build with
https://github.com/xypron/kernel-odroid-c2/tree/f8d565ff755e92fd585f5ae10123ce20abe03968

Especially look at the patch directory and config/config-next-20161212.

The userland is Debian Stretch with this package:
https://packages.debian.org/stretch/sddm

The link
https://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg550204.html
that you mention in a separate mail just links to this very thread due
to linux-arm-kernel at lists.infradead.org being in copy.

Best regards

Heinrich Schuchardt
