cb741654e5 ramips: improve GnuBee Personal Cloud Two support
Use the generic board detection for the GnuBee Personal Cloud Two
instead of the target specific one as all recent additions are doing.

Fixup the pinmux to set all pins used as GPIO to the function GPIO.
Request pins where used.

Drop the i2c from the dts. There is nothing connected. While at it fix an
indentation issue and use references instead of duplicating the whole
node path.

Use the same switch config as for the GB-PC1 and drop the led trigger for
the not supported IP1001 phy connected to second rgmii.

c60a21532b ramips: Add support for the GnuBee Personal Cloud Two
The GnuBee Personal Cloud Two crowdfunded on https://www.crowdsupply.com
It is a low-cost, low-power, network-attached storage device.

Specifications:

- SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT
- RAM: DDR3 512 MB
- Flash: 32 MB
- Six SATA ports for 3.5" Drives
- One SDcard
- One USB 3.0
- Two USB 2.0
- Gigabit Ethernet: Three Ports
- UART 3.5mm Audio Jack or 3 pin header - 57600 8N1
- Three GPIOs available on a pin header

Flash instructions:

The GnuBee Personal Cloud Two ships with libreCMC installed.
libreCMC is a Free Software Foundation approved fork of LEDE/OpenWrt.
As such one can upgrade using the webinterface or sysupgrade.

Das U-Boot has multiple options for recovery or updates including :

- USB
- http
- tftp

Errata:
- While there are three ethernet ports, the third requires support for
  the second GMAC. This will come in kernel 4.14.
- The first hard drive slot has a clearance issue with the two fan
  headers. Workaround is to pull the headers out and connect the pins to
  jumper wires.
- Using this device as a NAS is problematic with the 4.9 kernel as many
  /dev/sdX reads throw silent errors. The current theory behind this is
  some kind of unhandled DMA mapping error in the kernel. This is not an
  issue with kernel 4.4.
