Description

Hi,

The Redmi Note 12S (codename: sea) has received several system updates, but the kernel source currently available in this repository is heavily outdated and no longer matches the shipping firmware.

Under GPLv2, distributing a modified Linux kernel requires releasing the corresponding and up-to-date source code. This isn't a feature request — it's a legal obligation.

Device info:

Model: Redmi Note 12S
Codename: sea
SoC: MediaTek Helio G96 (MT6781)
OS: HyperOS 2.0.212.0.VHZMIXM / Android 15

Please push the updated branch for "sea-t-oss" to "sea-v-oss" to the MiCode repo. From 4.19.191 to 6.6.58

Thanks

Done means publishing the corresponding updated source branch requested in the issue.
