Good news on this front. The routerstation pro (and it's replacement after
1.5) are working on 3.10 with the patches rebased. I'll follow up later with
the update of the rsp and the removal of the 3.8 recipe.

The beagleboard and fsl board will follow after that as well, pending some
boot testing.

Cheers,

Bruce
