[$] The 2022 embedded Linux update

A regular feature of the Embedded
Linux Conference (ELC) has been an update on the state of embedded Linux from
conference organizer Tim Bird. It has been quite a few years since I had
the opportunity to sit in on one, so I took one at the
2022 Open
Source Summit North America (OSSNA) in Austin, Texas. OSSNA is an
umbrella conference that contains ELC and a whole lot more these days.
Bird gave a look at recent kernel features from an embedded perspective,
talked a bit about some different technology areas and their impact on
embedded Linux, and
also tried to answer a question that Andrew Morton posed in a keynote at ELC in 2008.
