New release 2.54.0 is available.

# Important changes

- Feature runtime:
  + Add boot option to preload kernel modules.
  + Add boot option to blacklist some kernel modules.
  + Use own utility to switch root.

- Feature runtime-compressed-fs:
  + This feature introduces support for building a compressed initramfs
    to significantly reduce memory usage during system boot.

- Guess device-tree:
  + This feature scans the device tree [1] for compatible nodes and
    determines which kernel modules are required for the current
    hardware.

- Guess loaded-modules:
  + Drop this guess feature. This feature was needed as a workaround to
    the problem of not being able to parse Device Tree (DT).
