b361a9d59a generic: allow ubi autoattach to run on NOR flash
Some devices out there only have a NOR flash to store the rootfs on.

While using UBI is arguable on this kind of flash, this is something that should
be supported.

d9bb8326fa kernel: update bcma and ssb to wireless-testing master-2014-12-05
This brings ssb and bcma to wireless-testing tag master-2014-12-05

In addition it also adds the ARM-BCM5301X-Add-IRQs-to-Broadcom-s-bus-
axi-in-DTS-f.patch which adds the irq number in a way it is done in the
mainline kernel.

acbcd5f5b5 kernel: rootfs auto-mount on ubi
Similar to the rootfs hacks on NOR flash devices, this series
introduces support for auto-attaching (ubi device), auto-creating
(ubiblock device) and mounting the "rootfs" (ubifs or squashfs)
volume.
This is needed so OpenWrt can start without relying on the bootloader
to pass the ubi.mtd, ubi.block, rootfs and rootfstype parameters, but
instead auto-detect the root filesystem according to a simple convention.

OpenWrt-specific:
490-ubi-auto-attach-mtd-device-named-ubi-or-data-on-boot.patch
491-ubi-auto-create-ubiblock-device-for-rootfs.patch
492-try-auto-mounting-ubi0-rootfs-in-init-do_mounts.c.patch
493-ubi-set-ROOT_DEV-to-ubiblock-rootfs-if-unset.patch

v2: actually retry with MS_RDONLY when mounting read-only ubifs root
