ath79: add mikrotik subtarget This commit creates the ath79/mikrotik subtarget in order to support MikroTik devices based on Qualcomm Atheros MIPS SoCs. MikroTik devices need a couple of specific features: the split MiNOR firmware MTD format, which is not used by other devices, and the 4k sector erase size on SPI NOR storage, which can not be added to the ath79/generic and ath79/nand subtargets now. Additionally, the commit moves the two MikroTik devices already in the generic and nand subtargets to this new one. Tested on the RB922 board and the wAP AC router.

ath79: move the squashfs feature to the parent target All subtargets define it. Move it to the parent target and remove it from all subtargets. Signed-off-by: Rui Salvaterra <rsalvaterra@gmail.com>

ath79: mikrotik: use vmlinuz (zBoot ELF) - minimal built initramfs: 10MB vmlinux ELF -> 6MB vmlinuz - ~5 seconds for kernel decompression, which was equivalent to the additional time to load the uncompressed ELF from SPI NOR. - Removes requirement for lzma-loader, which may have been causing some image builds to fail to boot on Mikrotik mt7621.

ath79: mikrotik: update kernel on NAND using Yafut Instead of erasing the entire NAND partition holding the kernel during every system upgrade and then flashing a Yaffs file system image prepared using kernel2minor (not accounting for bad blocks in the process), use the Yafut utility to replace the kernel executable on MikroTik NAND devices, preserving the existing Yaffs file system (including bad block information) on the partition holding the kernel. Add Yafut to DEFAULT_PACKAGES for the ath79/mikrotik target, so that the tool is included in the initramfs images created when building for multiple profiles. However, exclude Yafut from the images built for MikroTik devices with NOR flash as the tool is currently only meant to be used on devices with NAND flash. As this addresses the concerns for MikroTik NAND devices discussed in commit 9d96b6fb72 ("ath79/mikrotik: disable building NAND images"), re-enable building images for these devices.
