fdf6760cda kernel: improve ubi auto attach code readability
Move the put_mtd_device() called on multiple error conditions to a goto
label to use it later for more error conditions.

The early return on failed open of the mtd device and mismatching mtd
type allows to get rid of one level of indentation. By jumping to the
cleanup code, a refcount bug is fixed for the wrong flash type condition.

While at it, make clear that we only check for the UBI magic if the read
from flash was successful.

df68e63a4f kernel/4.14: add missing newline character to UBI messages
A few UBI messages lacks the trailing newline character which
leads to ugly lines in the bootlog like this:

  [    6.649159] UBI error: no valid UBI magic found inside mtd6[    6.667751] Freeing unused kernel memory: 2196K

Add a newline character to the end of the messages to fix it.
After the fix the line from above looks better in the log:

  [    6.609182] UBI error: no valid UBI magic found inside mtd6
  [    6.627599] Freeing unused kernel memory: 2132K

b3f95490b9 kernel: generic: Add kernel 4.14 support
This adds initial support for kernel 4.14 based on the patches for
kernel 4.9.

In the configuration I deactivated some of the new possible security
features like:
CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL
CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED
CONFIG_SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR
CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM

And these overlay FS options are also deactivated:
CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_INDEX
CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_REDIRECT_DIR

I activated this:
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE
CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS
CONFIG_SLAB_MERGE_DEFAULT
CONFIG_WATCHDOG_HANDLE_BOOT_ENABLED

I am not sure if I did the porting correct for the following patches:
target/linux/generic/backport-4.14/020-backport_netfilter_rtcache.patch
target/linux/generic/hack-4.14/220-gc_sections.patch
target/linux/generic/hack-4.14/321-powerpc_crtsavres_prereq.patch
target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/305-mips_module_reloc.patch
target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/611-netfilter_match_bypass_default_table.patch
target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/680-NET-skip-GRO-for-foreign-MAC-addresses.patch
