Round 8 (Phase 7.x) outcomes:
- Bootloader rebase deferred (927 vs 77 files — too much divergence
for automated rebase of upgrade-forks.sh). Documented as permanent
divergence with clearer fork-upstream-map.toml comment.
- patch-status.sh added (Phase 7.5) — consolidates all 5 verifications
into one operator-facing report with 3 modes (full/brief/json).
Takes 30-120s.
- Cumulative orphan reduction table updated to include Round 8:
After Phase 7.5: 122 patches, 0 orphans (0%)
Updated PATCH-PRESERVATION-AUDIT cumulative reduction table to
reflect the Round 8 state and the new patch-status.sh tool.
