+Subject: [PATCH 308/454] overlays: Add sdtweak features for network booting
+
+It has been observed that a Pi with no SD card will poll the interface
+continuously, using up to 10% CPU. Add some new parameters to the
+sdtweak overlay to control this behaviour:
+
+poll_once Only look for a card once, at boot time. If none is found
+ then the interface is effectively disabled.
+
+enable Set to "off" or "no" to completely disable the interface.
+
+See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/2567
