In case you really need a dedicated kernel, please use a DESCRIPTION
and elaborate it. What is the history of this kernel, why do you need
a different kernel, what is the difference of this kernel, and in case
it is really a 4.0 kernel why the chages are not upstreamed are
possible questions to be answerd in the DESCRIPTION.

I don't understand why are you using the same git repository as
linux-fslc, can you, please elaborate/explain your idea?

And, it also means your commit log is weak and you can elaborate it for v2?
