Initially for ARC we were building vmlinux images because it
was both simpler and more convenient to debug Linux kernel
in runt-time via JTAG. Now when base system works quite nice
we may finally use U-Boot for loading the system image as
well. Still we keep building vmlinux images as some of our
boards are development boards and loading images with JTAG
could be at some points very beneficial.
Note for U-Boot header it's required to specify 2 values:
* loading address
* entry point (if it doesn't match loading address)
and in case of ARC entry point (EP) not only differs from
loading address but also changes from build to build due to
initramfs being placed between loading address and text section.
To accommodate that feature we have to calculate EP after
vmlinux gets built and before call to mkimage.

even it's a little bit verbose, unmacrod board descriptions are much
easier to read and to understand.

This patch adds support for the Netgear EVG2000 VoIP Gateway to the
bcm63xx targets.
This device was not sold to the general public, but rather is/was
provided by telcos to customers in Sweden, Australia, Singapore and
other parts of asia.
Known issues:
- Unable to detect 53115 switch. This appear to be a problem with
probing for the PHY using MDIO and results in error 5. Doesn't seem to
be a problem with the configuration, and could use someone with
experience to have a look at it.
- Uses the b43 driver as using the OpenWRT/LEDE broadcom-wl driver
fails to load the firmware for the 4322, so 802.11n is not supported.
More info on the device and the research can be found at:

Some devices with ath9k WiFi require changing the default active low

These scripts were causing ip issues in the latest version of LEDE:

Fixes preinit iface script by making eth0 the default ifname and only changing
it to eth1 for the devices that specifically need it.

- Use default number of uarts (2) for rt288x/rt305x/rt3883/mt7620.
- Allow up to 3 uarts on MT7621 and MT7628.
- Remove unneeded SERIAL_8250_RT288X for MT7628.

The previous image creation code would have failed if the
unpadded kernel uImage size was less than 64 bytes from the
next erase block boundary. Fix that.

The CPE210 was still described for the OEM upgrade as compatible,
even the wireless configuration isn't compatible anymore between
both series (2ghz and 5ghz).
Update the CPE210 image profile to use the new profile.

The bootloader on this device expects the kernel partition to end
on a 64k boundary. The last 64 byte of the kernel partition must
contain a valid uImage header (the fakeroot partition).

1)Changes
- Rebased the patches for linux-4.4.7
- Added patch to fix spi nor fifo and dma support
- Added patch to configure watchdog barktime
2)Testing
Tested on IPQ AP148 Board:
a. NOR boot and NAND boot
b. ethernet network and ath10k wifi
c. ubi sysupgrade
UnTested
dwc3 usb has not been validated on IPQ board(AP148)
3)Known Issues:
Once we flash ubi image on AP148, and if we reset the board, uboot on
first boot creates PEB and LEB for dynamic sized partitions, which is incorrect
and not what linux expects which causes errors when trying to mount rootfs.
In order to test this, we can use the below steps:
a. Flash the ubi image on board and don't reset the board
b. load the kernel fit image in RAM and boot from there.
