When poking through my old OpenWRT code when cleaning up in 2025, I noticed there are two published chaoscalmer repositories.

e6fbf31 git://git.archive.openwrt.org/15.05/openwrt.git:master
5c2685a7a3 git://git.openwrt.org/openwrt/svn-archive/archive.git:chaos_calmer

The latest commits in git.archive.openwrt.org were in September 2016 and were svn imports. The svn-archive repo on git.openwrt.org had true git commits on top of the svn imports until the end of 2017. The two branches do not share a common commit for an easy rebase. Neither branch was strictly superior to the other.

e6fbf31 older, missing valuable commits
5c2685a7a3 encoding issues

f9755e2 from the newer repo was identified as being close to the tip of the older one (essentially only missing commit 29fcc94). This commit here is then basically the result of commit the result of

git checkout e6fbf31 -b wip.chaoscalmer
git diff f9755e2 5c2685a7a3 -- package/kernel/ | git apply - git commit
