Use 6.1 guest kernel configs from AL

Open bchalios opened this issue 6 months ago • 1 comments

Changes

Use AmazonLinux tailored guest configs for our 6.1 guest microVM kernels. Also, split the Kconfig for our CI kernels in a base part which will always be reflecting the AmazonLinux config and a set of patches that we apply on top of it before rebuilding our CI kernels. The patches live under resources/guest_configs/patches/.

Reason

AmazonLinux now ships a microVM kernels for 6.1. We want to build with the corresponding Kconfigs and keep track of our CI-specific changes in a form of patches.
