This breaks some devices where the serial console is not at port 0 but
somewhere else.

c48f285147 brcm47xx: deactivate mips wait instruction only for BCM4706
The wait instruction is only broken on the BCM4706 and not on the other
similar SoCs.

4abd860ab2 brcm47xx: swap also early boot console if necessary.
Some devices are using tty1 as the default console, also swap the early
boot console in such case. This is needed for the WGT634U.

Thank you Russell for reporting this.

b201818044 brcm47xx: update early printk patches
Early printk was disabled because it caused hangs on some devices, the
old patches were using the CFE console now we use the normal serial
console, it is at a constant address.

c78e4fb220 brcm47xx: Add support for Huawei E970
This patch adds support for Huawei E970 wireless gateway devices.
It has been tested on an E970 labelled as T-Mobile web'n'walk Box IV.
E960/B970 should work too, from what I know it's basically the same hardware.

The device has a Broadcom BCM5354 SoC and a built-in 3G USB modem.

It uses a hardware watchdog which needs GPIO-7 to be toggled at least
every 1-2 seconds. This patch uses gpio_wdt module (see my previous
patch today) to take care of this.

Tested and works:  3G wan,  wlan+LED,  VLAN config,  failsafe using reset
button,   image to be used for upgrade from OEM firmware's web interface

Link to the wiki page I've created:  <http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/huawei/e970>

Issue:

* lzma-loader crashes, so gzipped kernel is used. Presumably due to watchdog
  reset during kernel decompress.
