The kernel support necessary to use a console keyboard was not built on
x86, affecting real and virtual machines alike. The console keyboard
would function properly in GRUB, but would not work at all once Linux
booted. It appeared that the console was intended to work because
console video appeared on the display, including prompts to enter
failsafe or select the debug log level from the keyboard, and the prompt
to "Press Enter to activate this console", but there was no way to
provide input to it. All keystrokes were ignored.
This enables several kernel configuration options to enable HID and USB
HID support (CONFIG_HID, CONFIG_HID_SUPPORT, CONFIG_HID_GENERIC, and
CONFIG_USB_HID), making the keyboard functional. For alignment with
armsr, CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV is also added, although not strictly necessary
for keyboard support. Note that this change also causes
CONFIG_HID_HYPERV_MOUSE to be enabled for x86/64 and x86/generic: it was
already set in these subarchitectures' kernel configurations, but was
ineffective due to CONFIG_HID being absent.
The omission of keyboard support on x86 may not have been widely noticed
because USB HID is not used on production OpenWrt x86 machines such as
pc-engines,apu2 which only have a serial console, or with the default
x86 configuration used by scripts/qemustart, which uses -nographic and
does not configure a virtual physical console but instead uses a serial
console.
This configuration change results in, for x86_64, +40kB in kernel.bin
and just over +40kB in gzip-compressed "combined" images. This should
not be a problem for the non-storage-constrained x86 target.
Until 2a86425de1, CONFIG_HID, CONFIG_USB_HID, and CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV
were set in the target-level kernel configuration, and
CONFIG_HID_GENERIC was set at the subtarget level. These are
reintroduced strictly at the subtarget level by request. This applies to
the 64, generic, and legacy subtargets, omitting geode.

This adds the legacy /dev/fb* device file for kernel 6.6 again.
Linux upstream commit 701d2054fa31 ("fbdev: Make support for
userspace interfaces configurable") made this configurable and we
deactivated this option by default for kernel 6.6. On x86 we are not
space constrained and some users need this legacy interface.

This compiles the CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK support into the kernel binary
and activates the drivers for KVM and VMware which allow syncing the
host time with the VM when OpenWrt is running in a VM. With this change
the CONFIG_HYPERV_UTILS driver is now build into the kernel, because it
depends on the PTP framework being compiled in. CONFIG_HYPERV_UTILS was
build as a module, but not packages before.
