 Yes, you should use 'git rebase -i origin/master' to rebase your changes on top
of the buildroot master, and then squash everything into a single commit. For
this case, I don't see a reason to split it into separate commits.

 Remember to add a changelog to the commit message, like so:

...
Signed-off-by: ...
---
Changes v2: ....

 In that case, it's definitely important to have a readme file. And you probably
also want to add BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_IMX_USB_LOADER=y to the defconfig.
