Since the kernel/rootfs split handling was modified 2 years ago by r37283 (
https://dev.openwrt.org/changeset/37283 ) and by the subsequent checkins,
users have seen rather scary mtd errors in the log at every boot. The message
ends "-- forcing read-only", which looks a bit error-like. That error has
been mentioned in some forum threads, when users have noticed this message
instead of some actual error.

The patch removes the rather useless warning message.

This change adds PCIe support to IPQ806x based platforms. The driver is
actually cherry-picked from the following LKML thread:
*https://lwn.net/Articles/643086/ (patches 110-111)
We also add here an additional fix to support multiple PCI controllers
on the same platform (patch 112), and to patch the ap148 & dbs149 DTS
files (patch 113).

This change enable zImage+appended dtb support in ipq806x kernel
options. The zImage will now be generated as part of the kernel
binaries. Platforms which do not have DT support enabled in U-boot
can now make use of it by generating zImage files and appending dtb
to it.
It is not used yet but it is done as a stepping stone for early IPQ806x
platforms, which did not include DT support in U-boot.

ARCH_QCOM is using the ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM option, as now recommended
on most ARM architectures. This automatically calculate ZRELADDR by
masking PHYS_OFFSET with 0xf8000000.
On IPQ806x though, the first ~20MB of RAM is reserved for the hardware.
In newer bootloader, when DT is used, this is not a problem, we just
reserve this memory in the device tree. But if the bootloader doesn't
have DT support, then ATAGS have to be used. In this case, the ARM
decompressor will position the kernel in this low mem, which will not be
in the RAM section mapped by the bootloader, which means the kernel will
freeze in the middle of the boot process trying to map the memory.
As a work around, this patch allows disabling AUTO_ZRELADDR when
ARCH_QCOM is selected. It makes the zImage usage possible on bootloaders
which don't support device-tree, which is the case on certain early
IPQ806x based designs.

This option has been added in kernel 3.17. It shows-up only when both
ARCH_QCOM and CRYPTO are enabled. So we'll disable these two by default
to avoid stalling the build when these conditions are met.

There are 2 images missing: TLWR2543 TLWR1043V2 which have special properties.
v2: set correct DEVICE_PROFILES for all images.
v2: migrate TP-LINK TL-WR710N v2 which was committed after v1.
v2: split very very long line `TARGET_DEVICES +=` into smaller parts

Most people report broken ethernet with upstream. Last year, user "franz.flasch"
authored a working mach-file. His patch is outdated so I modernized it. Original
patch and user commentary on page 1:
https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=260861#p260861
I have figured out what the critical differences are between the two that caused
upstream ethernet to break.
1) Both ath79_init_mac() functions calls must be invocated before any GMAC init
2) must init GMAC0 before GMAC1
That was enough to get upstream to function, but I wanted to enjoy my confidence
having tested franz's patch for a week sucessfully, so I put his whole
function in, which only features more differences in order of function calls.
An expert should consider these changes, which could pose potential bugs/issues:
1) No longer using the flag AR934X_ETH_CFG_SW_PHY_SWAP in the
ath79_setup_ar934x_eth_cfg() call.
2) Possible consequence of no longer explicitly setting ethernet duplex/speed.
Review: With this patch, my ethernet and wireless works.

INET_LRO deprecated and there are exactly two drivers using it, neither
being included in any of the targets enabling INET_LRO. At the same time
both drivers needing it select it.
So just disable it for everyone.
