Performance comparison (iperf3, mtu 1500):
Before: 53.9 Mbps
After: 87.9 Mbps
The tests were performed on a BT Home Hub 5A router.
The iperf3 server was running on the router, the client
on the host.

This DT property allows marking flash partition that Linux should use as
a root device. It's useful for devices that don't use U-Boot and cmdline
parser for partitioning. It may be used with "fixed-partitions" or some
dynamic partitioning based on flash content.

Backport patch from kernel 5.15 that mute error on EPROBE_DEFER with
smempart parser.
This parser require the smem device to be probed first and currently it
may happen that mtd gets probed before the smem device causing an error
on the smempart parser. This error may be confusing and should be muted.

In new kernel version from 5.16, smem node can be declared directly in
the reserved-space node. Upstream ipq806x (and to-be-merged) ipq807x

fix support for smem parser for ipq806x target.

Move MGLRU patches from pending to backport as they got merged upstream.
These are direct porting from one of the dev so it's better to just move
than trying to backport them again from upstream.

Upstream has switched to gnu11 not too long ago. One advantage of
backporting this to these older kernels is, that we can encourage and
write better upstreamable kernels. E.g. the kernel devs prefer loop
declarations. Shrinking the master/local gap will be useful in these
cases.

OpenWRT's developer guide prefers having actual patches so they an be
sent upstream more easily.
However, in this case, Adding proper fields also allows for `git am` to
properly function. Some of these patches are quite old, and lack much
traceable history.
This commit tries to rectify that, by digging in the history to find
where and how it was first added.
It is by no means perfect and also shows some patches that should have
been long gone.

Instead of dropping *fix-typo-in-__mtk_foe_entry.patch which effectively
means keeping the (also wrong) assignment of MTK_FOE_STATE_BIND, rather
use MTK_FOE_STATE_INVALID as that works well on both older (NETSYS_V1)
and newer (NETSYS_V2) MediaTek SoCs.

This patch will print the name of the modem in the bootlog
during probing.
This allows to verify that the exact model was loaded and not some
generic type.
The only other way to do this is by enabling dynamic debugging
which is disabled by default in OpenWRT
