+Subject: [PATCH 07/55] target: introduce default location for external target
+ linux generic
+
+An external target provided by a custom feed might depend on a specific
+kernel version and might need to apply generic patches for the specific
+kernel version.
+
+Now that the kernel version file is defined in the generic target
+director, it's possible to handle this scenario for an external target
+from feed.
+
+To do this, we introduce additional logic for GENERIC_PLATFORM_DIR where
+we check if the target feed have in his upper directory a linux/generic
+path and use that instead of the default TOPLEVEL linux/generic path.
+
+An example for an external target from feed would have the following
+path structure:
+
+mediatek/Makefile
+linux/generic
+linux/generic/config-6.6
+...
+
+An external target from feed is also defined by creating a symbolic link
+in target/linux/${BOARD} to the feed directory with board as the name of
+the external target.
+
+This is to try to enforce a more consistent way to handle external
+target in downstream project that makes use of OpenWrt build system.
