Thanks for reaching me out on my personal emails! My friend Runa is
trying to make it Waydroid work by using the openSUSE's KMP but I guess
since binder is present on the kernel in main branch, so ditching the
KMP packages is good solution. Also, I have many tries to build the
customized kernel but it failed and nothing helpful.

This is a real equipment that Waydroid needs to get work, but these
config didn't exists in openSUSE Kernel.

Sounds like for the modules, we need to reach the openSUSE kernel
maintainers and discuss about the binder integration. You can reach them
by sending the binder integration issues on their mailing list
(https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/kernel@lists.opensuse.org/).

It's okay! Don't worry about it. You can reach me everytime you're free.
That's it from me, reply it if you have an idea.
