This adds a hotplug script for distributing interrupts of eth0 and eth1
across different cores. Otherwise the forwarding performance between
eth0 and eth1 is severely affected.
The existing SMP distribution mechanic in OpenWrt can't be used here, as
the actual device IRQ has to be moved to dedicated cores. In case of
eth1, this is in fact the USB3 controller.

Some rockchip SoCs like the RK3399 and RK3328 exhibit an issue
where tx checksumming does not work with packets larger than 1498.
The default Programmable Buffer Length for TX in these GMAC's is
not suitable for MTUs higher than 1498. The workaround is to disable
TX offloading with 'ethtool -K eth0 tx off rx off' causing performance
impacts as it disables hardware checksumming.
This patch sets snps,txpbl to 0x4 which is a safe number tested ok for
the most popular MTU value of 1500.

Hardware
--------
RockChip RK3328 ARM64 (4 cores)
1GB DDR4 RAM
2x 1000 Base-T
3 LEDs (LAN / WAN / SYS)
1 Button (Reset)
Micro-SD slot
USB 2.0 Port
Installation
------------
Uncompress the OpenWrt sysupgrade and write it to a micro SD card using
dd.
MAC-address
-----------
The vendor code supports reading a MAC address from an EEPROM connected
via i2c0 of the SoC. The EEPROM (address 0x51) should contain the MAC
address in binary at offset 0xfa. However, my two units didn't come with
such an EEPROM soldered on. The EEPROM should be placed between the SoC
and the GPIO pins on the board. (U10)
Generating rendom MAC addresses works around this issue. Otherwise, all
boards running the same image have identical MAC addresses.

* Some modern browsers may have problems flashing via the Recovery GUI,
if that occurs consider uploading the firmware through cURL:

In imx6, we currently use the model from DTS to derive a board name
manually in /lib/imx6.sh.
However, if we have individual DTS files anyway, we can exploit
generic 02_sysinfo and use the compatible as board name directly.
While at it, remove the wildcards from /lib/upgrade/platform.sh as
these might make code shorter, but are quite unpleasant when grepping
for a specific device.

OpenWrt lately has harmonized device (definition) names to the
pattern vendor_model to improve overall consistency, also with
other values like the DTS compatible.
This patch applies that scheme to the layerscape target.
Since this (intentionally) creates a bigger overlap between DTS names,
compatible, and device definition name, it also moves DEVICE_DTS and
SUPPORTED_DEVICES definitions to the Device/Default blocks.
Apart from that, it also modifies several packages to use consistent
naming in order to keep the $(1) file references working.
While at it, remove one layer of complexity for the setup in
tfa-layerscape package.

This adds a full eMMC image including U-Boot, which means that the

This actually covers fairly much all the MediaTek platforms; they
only have different images because they don't include the preloader
and U-Boot, and rely on preinstalled stuff from the vendor.
So this script can slowly take over the world as we complete the
support for various other platforms, starting with UniElec U7623…

Many MediaTek SoCs can be unbricked by using the SP Flash Tool from
http://spflashtool.com/ along with a "scatter list" file, which is
just a text file listing which image gets loaded where.
We use a trivial partition layout for the tool, with the whole eMMC
image as a single "partition", which means users just need to unzip
the sysupgrade image. Doing the real partition layout would be overly
complex and would require the individual partitions to be shipped
as artifacts — or users to extract them out of the sysupgrade image
just for the tool to put them adjacent to each other on the eMMC
anyway.
The tool does require a copy of the preloader in order to operate,
even when it isn't flashing the preloader to the eMMC boot region.
So drop that into the bin directory as an artifact too.

An upcoming commit will add a full system image for U7623 which will
contain the MBR partition table and U-Boot too.
That contrasts with the current image which only owns the eMMC from
sector 0xa00 onwards, and must start with a legacy uImage.
Prepare for sysupgrade to the new images, and cope with the fact that
the recovery partition will be /dev/mmcblk0p2 instead of /dev/mmcblk0p1
after the upgrade.
This commit could potentially be backported to 19.07 to allow for direct
sysupgrade to the new image layout.

This board ships with an ancient 14.07-based OpenWrt using block2mtd, and
the MBR partition table contains nonsense.
It is possible to sysupgrade to an upstream OpenWrt image, but the
legacy layout of the OpenWrt images start at 0xA00 in the eMMC, with
a raw uImage. The legacy OpenWrt image doesn't "own" the beginning
of the device, including the MBR and U-Boot.
This means that when a user upgrades to upstream OpenWrt, it doesn't
boot because it can't find the right partitions. So hard-code them on
the kernel's command line using CONFIG_CMDLINE_PARTITION (for block).
Additionally, the vendor firmware doesn't cope with images larger than
about 36MiB, because it only overwrites the contents of its "firmware"
MTD partition. The current layout of the legacy image wastes a lot of
space, allowing over 32MiB for the kernel and another 10MiB for the FAT
recovery file system which is only created as 3MiB. So pull those in
to allow 4¾ MiB for the kernel, 3MiB for recovery, and then we have over
20MiB for the root file system.
This doesn't affect the new images which ship with a full eMMC image
including a different MBR layout and a partition for U-Boot, because
our modern U-Boot can actually pass the command line to the kernel, and
the built-in one doesn't get used anyway.
Tested by upgrading from vendor OpenWrt to the current legacy image,
from legacy to itself, to the previous legacy layout, and then to
finally the full-system image.
This commit probably wants backporting to 19.07, which also doesn't
install over the vendor OpenWrt and doesn't even have a full-system
installation option.

Installation:
To install, either start tftp in bin/targets/ath79/generic/ and use
the u-boot prompt over UART:
tftpboot 0x80500000 openwrt-ath79-generic-compex_wpj563-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

erase 0x9f030000 +$filesize
cp.b $fileaddr 0x9f030000 $filesize
boot
The cpximg file can be used with sysupgrade in the stock firmware (add
SSH key in luci for root access) or with the built-in cpximg loader.
The cpximg loader can be started either by holding the reset button
during power up or by entering the u-boot prompt and entering 'cpximg'.
Once it's running, a TFTP-server under 192.168.1.1 will accept the image
appropriate for the board revision that is etched on the board.
For example, if the board is labelled '7A02':
tftp -v -m binary 192.168.1.1 -c put openwrt-ath79-generic-compex_wpj563-squashfs-cpximg-7a02.bin
