meta-polarfire-soc-yocto-bsp v2024.06

The main changes in this release are the switch to the Linux kernel version 6.6 and the update to kirkstone version 4.0.17. There are also some other fixes and enhancements, such as changes to the auto update driver to use sysfs instead of debugfs. Additional information on how to use auto update for releases v2024.06 or later can be found in the Re-programming the FPGA from Linux documentation.

In this release, the CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM option is enabled by default in the kernel configuration. This prevents user-space applications from performing unauthorized I/O operations, which can interfere with device operations and compromise system security. Users who need to use devmem or similar tools to access memory regions should disable this option from mpfs_defconfig if necessary.
