+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] openwrt: arc - remove dependency on DEVTMPFS
+
+OpenWRT builds initramfs so that it doesn't require DEVTMPFS so dropping
+this dependency. That helps to escape 2 separate kernel rebuilds with
+and without initramfs.
+
+2 builds happen because OpenWRT first builds kernel and later modules.
+When building entire kernel with simple "make" INITRAMFS sets to a real
+value and so was triggering DEVTMPFS selection. Then when building only
+modules with "make modules" command INITRAMFS is zeroed and so kernel
+config was changing that lead to full kernel rebuild.
