   * Fix holes in swapfiles on pre-installed desktop images. Instead of
     pre-allocating the swapfile in the image, allocate it on first boot and
     use a systemd .swap unit to activate it (LP: #1961047)

+  * Use the 'classic' branch of the pi gadget for both classic and desktop
+    pi images by specifying the gadget make target during the gadget priming
+    phase.
