The biggest (and the only?) disadventage of this is obviously an
increased image size.
For mips74k the size of vmlinux goes up from 4186684 B to 4701436 B.
Most devices use LZMA compressed kernel so probably more important is
vmlinux.lzma size which goes up from 1342945 B to the 1508498 B.
Still this isn't something that should stop target kernel bump. There
are various adventages of kernel 4.14. If kernel / image size is a
serious concern for anyone, it's perfectly possible to use previous
release which is pretty solid for the brcm47xx.

Kernel 4.9 is now working on the brcm47xx boards, we just recently fixed
the problem that some boards did not boot at all, by changing the memory
regions used to relocate the kernel to in the loader.

By default we are reusing the stack provided by CFE, like it is intended
by CFE. On my WRT54GS it is located at 0x8043BF30, so a big kernel image
could overwrite it. Relocate it to a different memory region which is
still under the 8MB RAM, but in the higher area. We only need this
memory region for the stack of the loader, Linux will set up this
for its own.
Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>
The boot process on a WRT54GL works the following way:
1. CFE gets loaded by the boot rom from flash
2. CFE loads the loader from the flash and gzip uncompresses it
3. CFE starts the loader
4. The loader stores the FW arguments and relocates itself to
BZ_TEXT_START (now 0x80600000)
5. The loader reads the Linux image from flash
6. The loader lzma decompresses the Linux image to LOADADDR (0x80001000)
7. The loader executes the uncompress Linux image at LOADADDR
The BZ_TEXT_START was set to 0x80400000 before. When the kernel gets
uncompressed and is bigger than BZ_TEXT_START - LOADADDR it overwrote
the loader which was currently uncompressing it and made the board
crash. Increase the BZ_TEXT_START my 2 MB to have more space for the
kernel. Even on 16MB RAM devices the memory goes till 0x80FFFFFF so this
should not be a problem.

This reverts commit 31e9445b7e.
"Linksys E1200 V1" is not a valid board name, as the brcm47xx arch code

On Asus RT-N12 and RT-N16 models, the WAN and LAN4 ports are swapped in the
initial switch configuration since the presets present in nvram appear to be
wrong.
Add special casing for these models to detect_by_model() in order to ensure
a proper switch configuration.

Do not parse /tmp/sysinfo/board_name, /proc/cpuinfo or the device tree
compatible string directly. Always use the board_name function to get
the board name.
The admswconfig package still reads /proc/cpuinfo directly. The code
looks somehow broken and the whole adm5120 which uses this package
looks unmaintained. Leave it as it is for now.

On the Linksys WRT54GSv1, the Power LED flickers in the "off" state.
Indicate status using the DMZ LED if available, since it has solid "on" and
"off" states.

devices.

On the Linksys WRT54GSv1, the adm6996 switch driver and the
gpio_button_hotplug module both claim GPIO 6, which is connected to the
Reset button. When the switch driver's request wins, the Reset button
cannot work. This makes it impossible to enter failsafe mode without a
serial console.
Stop requesting the "adm_rc" GPIO in the switch driver, since it is not
used anywhere.

WL500GPv1 profile included ath5k which made it usable only for people
who decided to replace default BCM4318 card with Atheros one. We can't
have profile for every possible configuration. If someone adjusts hw in
such a way he can always install a proper package.
WRTSL54GS profile got extra packages for a specific USB usage. Our
standard profile provides basic USB and we should stick to this. We
can't make everyone happy by including packages for all common USB use
cases and all common filesystems.
