Same for me...
Created attachment 473808 [details, diff] Patch to fix src_unpack() patch failure This patch removes the remainder of the patch hunk that attempts to add -bfq to the kernel makefile's EXTRAVERSION. This works around the src_unpack() failures caused by genpatches-4.11-3.experimental's 5004_blkck-bfq-turn-BFQ-v7r11-for-4.11.0-into-BFQ-v8r11-for-4.patch1.
Created attachment 473810 [details, diff] Fix src_unpack() patch warning This patch removes a trailing space that causes a patch warning. This works around the warning generated when applying 5010_enable-additional-cpu-optimizations-for-gcc.patch from genpatches-4.11-3.experimental.
