[ANN] U-Boot v2021.07 released

Hey all,
It is release day and here is the v2021.07 release. With this release we are now at the second of our 2 years past a number of DM migration deadlines. Once again, this will be the last release for a number of boards that will be removed shortly, so that we can be done with the migration and perform some cleanups, etc, around that area of code. There are more migration deadlines for v2021.10.
In terms of a changelog, git log --merges v2021.07-rc5..v2021.07 or git log --merges v2021.04..v2021.07
The merge window is once again open and I plan to tag -rc1 on Monday, July 26th, bi-weekly -rcs thereafter and final release on October 4th, 2021.
I am merging the next branch to master shortly and will send a separate email when that is done.

Is there something I forgot to do in order to get my lpc32xx series in? https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/list/?series=248264

A good question. I had hoped to get a chance to pickup platform stuff for next, but did not. My plan right now is: - General CI updates (now in) - Update to gcc-11/clang-11 (I know clang-12 is out, but, one step at a time) which I'm testing now. - Platform updates - Kick-around how USB_HOST is used, to deal with the DM_USB migration deadline warning for Nokia N900 - Platform removals
