217571b6ab ath79: WNDR3700/3800/MAC: utilize nvmem for caldata fetching
converts the still popular WNDR3700 Series to fetch the
caldata through nvmem. As the "MAC with NVMEM" has shown,
there could pitfalls along the way.

e826b64294 ath79: convert remaining mtd-mac-address cases to nvmem
Since the nvmem-based approach for retrieving MAC addresses
appears to depend on the addresses being set up after the
partitions, it is no longer possible to keep the MAC address
setup in shared DTSI files while the partitions itself are
set up in DTS files for the individual devices.

In ath79 the firmware partition is typically located somewhere
"in the middle" of the partition table. Thus, it's not trivial
to share the partitions containing MAC address information in
a common DTSI (like we did in some cases on ramips).

In this commit, MAC address setup is thus moved to the relevant
partitions, and in most cases needs to be duplicated. While
the duplication is not really nice, it eventually provides a
cleaner and more tidy setup, making the DTS(I) file
fragmentation a bit more logical. This should also help
with adding new devices, as information is distributed across
less locations.

For consistency, this commit also moves the mtd-cal-data property
"down" together with the MAC address setup, so it's not based
on a partition before the latter is defined either. (This is
only done for those files touched due to nvmem conversion.)

ff7709d223 kernel: mtdsplit_uimage: replace "netgear, uimage" parser
The "netgear,uimage" parser can be replaced by the generic
parser using device specific openwrt,ih-magic and
openwrt,ih-type properties.

Device tree properties for the following devices have not
been set, as they have been dropped from OpenWrt with the
removal of the ar71xx target:

 FW_MAGIC_WNR2000V1     0x32303031
 FW_MAGIC_WNR2000V4     0x32303034
 FW_MAGIC_WNR1000V2_VC  0x31303030
 FW_MAGIC_WPN824N       0x31313030

41cc7edc15 ath79: move dts-v1 statement to ath79.dtsi
The "/dts-v1/;" identifier is supposed to be present once at the
top of a device tree file after the includes have been processed.

In ath79, we therefore requested to have in the DTS files so far,
and omit it in the DTSI files. However, essentially the syntax of
the parent ath79.dtsi file already determines the DTS version, so
putting it into the DTS files is just a useless repetition.

Consequently, this patch puts the dts-v1 statement into the parent
ath79.dtsi, which is (indirectly) included by all DTS files. All
other occurences are removed.
Since the dts-v1 statement needs to be before any other definitions,
this also moves the includes to make sure the ath79.dtsi or its
descendants are always included first.

61307544d1 ath79: wndr3700 series: fix wifi range & throughput
This patch adds ar71xx's GPIO setup for the 2.4GHz and 5GHz antennae
demultiplexer:

| 158         /* 2.4 GHz uses the first fixed antenna group (1, 0, 1, 0) */
| 159         ap9x_pci_setup_wmac_gpio(0, (0xf << 6), (0xa << 6));
| 160
| 161         /* 5 GHz uses the second fixed antenna group (0, 1, 1, 0) */
| 162         ap9x_pci_setup_wmac_gpio(1, (0xf << 6), (0x6 << 6));

This should restore the range and throughput of the 2.4GHz radio
on all the derived wndr3700 variants and versions with the AR7161 SoC.
A special case is the 5GHz radio. The original wndr3700(v1) will
benefit from this change. However the wndr3700v2 and later revisions
were unaffected by the missing bits, as there is no demultiplexer
present in the later designs.

This patch uses gpio-hogs within the device-tree for all
wndr3700/wndr3800/wndrmac variants.

Notes:

Based on the PCB pictures, the WNDR3700(v1) really had eight
independent antennae. Four antennae for each radio and all of
those were printed on the circut board.

The WNDR3700v2 and later have just six antennae. Four of those
are printed on the circuit board and serve the 2.4GHz radio.
Whereas the remaining two are special 5GHz Rayspan Patch Antennae
which are directly connected to the 5GHz radio.

Hannu Nyman dug pretty deep and unearthed a treasure of information
regarding the history of how these values came to be in the OpenWrt
archives: <https://dev.archive.openwrt.org/ticket/6533.html>.

Mark Mentovai came across the fixed antenna group when he was looking
into the driver:

    fixed_antenna_group 1, (0, 1, 0, 1)
    fixed_antenna_group 2, (0, 1, 1, 0)
    fixed_antenna_group 3, (1, 0, 0, 1)
    fixed_antenna_group 4, (1, 0, 1, 0)

Add support for WNDR3700 and WNDR3700v2.

They share most things with WNDR3800.
Only device IDs and partition structure needs to be set.

Note: WNDR3700 (v1) has no NETGEAR_HW_ID, but has
      also the NA version of the factory image.
