Increase the available flash memory size in Netgear R7800
by taking into the use the unused "netgear" partition
that is located after the firmware partition.
Available flash space for kernel+rootfs+overlay increases
by 68 MB from 32 MB to 100 MB.
In a typical build, overlay space increases from 15 to 85,
increasing the package installation possibilities greatly.
Reverting to the OEM firmware is still possible, as the OEM
firmware contains logic to initialise the "netgear" partition
if its contents do not match expectations. In OEM firmware,
"netgear" contains 6 UBI sub-partitions that are defined in
/etc/netgear.cfg and initialisation is done by /etc/preinit
Tested with Openwrt master r7093-4fdc6ca31b and OEM V1.0.2.52

After commit a1248da (zynq: convert to new image build code),
all boards, became unbootable, entering into a boot loop.
Replace the compressed kernel zImage by an uncompressed Image,
which is compressed after with gzip. Also, enable the creation
of an initramfs image by default.
Change images' filename to match the compatible string from the
respective .dts file (<vendor>_<model>). Also, use the shared
mkits.sh script and remove the target specific one.

Some board vendors actually changed the loader to expect the chip
to come up in 4-address-mode and flipped the ADP bit in the flash
chip's configuration register which makes it come up in 4-address-mode.
Hence it doesn't make sense to avoid switching to 4-address-mode on
those boards but the opposite as otherwise reboot hangs eg. on the
WrtNode2 boards. Fix this by checking the ADP register and only using
SPI_NOR_4B_READ_OP on chips which have ADP==0 (come up in 3-byte mode).

We recently increased the kernel partition size of the CPE/WBS 210/510.
This works fine for new installations of the factory image, but on
sysupgrades, the partition table read by the bootloader is not adjusted.
This limits the maximum size of the kernel loaded by the bootloader to the
old partition size.
While adjusting the partition table would be a cleanest solution, such a
migration would have to happen before an upgrade to a new version with a
newer kernel. This is error-prone and would require a two-step upgrade, as
we mark the partition table partition read-only.
Instead, switch from the lzma-loader with embedded kernel to the
okli-loader, so only the tiny lzma-loader is loaded by the bootloader as
"kernel", and the lzma-loader will then load the rest of the kernel by
itself.

Import all improvements made in the lzma-loader since development on the
ath79 target started.
This also reverts fe594bf90d ("ath79: fix loader-okli, lzma-loader"), as
is obsoleted by 2ad60168b6af ("ar71xx: lzma-loader: move padding workaround

Likely, many of the changes should be ported to the ramips lzma-loader as
well, but I don't have a device to test this.

By making the kernel argv array const, the .data section can always be
omitted from the laoder binary.

The text section in the ELF loader is aligned to the maximum page size,
which defaults to 64KB. Reduce it to the actual page size to avoid wasting
flash space for this alignment.

Some devices (TP-Link TL-WR1043ND v1) don't boot reliably when the
uncompressed loader is too small. This was workarounded in the loader by
adding 512KB of padding to the .data section of the loader binary.
This approach had two issues:
- The padding was only working when .data was non-empty (otherwise the
section would become NOBITS, omitting it in the binary). .data was only
empty when no CMDLINE was set, leading to further workarounds like
fe594bf90d ("ath79: fix loader-okli, lzma-loader"), and this
workaround was only effective because a missing "const" led to the kernel
argv being stored in .data instead of .rodata
- The padding was not only added to the compressed .gz loader, but also
uncompressed .bin and .elf loaders. The prevented embedding the kernel
cmdline in the loader for non-gz loader types.
To fix both issues, move the creation of the padding from the linker script
to the gzip step.

The console bootarg is being corrupted on boot, causing various issues
including broken sysupgrade.
Utilising the bootargs mangle patch from other targets, hardcode the console
arguments and fetch the rootfs from the bootloader.

Reboot the oxnas target based on Linux 4.14 by rebasing our support on
top of the now-existing upstream kernel support.
This commit brings oxnas support to the level of v4.17 having upstream
drivers for Ethernet, Serial and NAND flash.
Botch up OpenWrt's local drivers for EHCI, SATA and PCIe based on the
new platform code and device-tree.
Re-introduce base-files from old oxnas target which works for now but
needs further clean-up towards generic board support.
Functional issues:
* PCIe won't come up (hence no USB3 on Shuttle KD20)
* I2C bus of Akitio myCloud device is likely not to work (missing
debounce support in new pinctrl driver)
Code-style issues:
* plla/pllb needs further cleanup -- currently their users or writing
into the syscon regmap after acquireling the clk instead of using
defined clk_*_*() functions to setup multipliers and dividors.
* PCIe phy needs its own little driver.
* SATA driver is a monster and should be split into an mfd having
a raidctrl regmap, sata controller, sata ports and sata phy.
Tested on MitraStar STG-212 aka. Medion Akoya MD86xxx and Shuttle KD20.

That commit exposed a bug in the DTS files used by mt7621 where the wrong
reg value for pcie1 (and potentially pcie2) was being used. This was
causing WiFi failures for interfaces in pcie1.
eg. 2.4GHz working but not 5GHz.
As all of these dts entries are already specified in mt7621.dtsi, remove
them.
