Hello,

The title should have been:

Add support for Juno r2.

This part is not needed, as it only repeats the commit title with no other additional information.

I guess you meant r2 here.

Applied with those issues fixed.

Thanks!

No, you should have kept using BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_LINUX_HEADERS_CUSTOM_X_Y, since this tells Buildroot to use the kernel sources specified below for the kernel headers used to build the toolchain.

I've already applied, but when using such an official release, using the tarball would be much more download efficient.

Applied with the kernel headers change. Thanks!
