The qca8k driver is upstream, unlike swconfig. This applies to the mx60
and wndr4700 only. Fixed up LED definitions as well.
RTL83xx DSA for WNDAP62300/660 is not working.

With the default BUILD_BOT configuration on a linux 6.6 kernel,
the WNDR4700's kernel no longer fits into the alloted ~3.5MiB,
even with LZMA compression.
Bigger kernels are possible, but there's a problem with Netgear's
"bootcmd":
> if loadn_dniimg 0 0x180000 0x4e0000 && chk_dniimg 0x4e0000; then nand read 0x800000 0x180000 0x20000;bootm 0x500000 - 0x800040;else fw_recovery; fi"
This loads the dni-image starting offset 0x180000 from the NAND
flash (which is the DTB partition) to 0x4e0000 in the RAM. It then
checks whenever the provided image is "valid". If it is then it
reads the DTB again to 0x800000 in the RAM and starts the extraction
and boot process. (If the image wasn't valid then it starts the
automated firmware recovery).
The issues here are that first: the kernel image gets "squeezed"
between 0x500040 and 0x7fffff... And second, the decompressor
only has area 0x0 - 0x500000 for decompression.
Hence the image now requires to update the bootcmd by providing
new values (which have been successfully tested with the original
Netgear WNDR4700 v1.0.0.56 firmware) for the RAM locations and
make full use of the fact that loadn_dniimg loads the DTB as well.
This needs to be done only once. Just connect a serial adapter to
interface with uboot and overwrite (and save) the new bootcmd.
WARNING: The serial port needs a TTL/RS-232 3.3v level converter!
Steps:
0. Power-off the WNDR4700
1. Connect the serial interface (you need to open the WNDR4700)
2. Power-up the WNDR4700
3. Monitor the boot-sequence and hit "Enter"-key when it says:
"Hit any key to stop autoboot" (Be quick, you have a ~2 second window)
4. in the Prompt enter the following commands (copy & paste)
setenv bootcmd "if loadn_dniimg 0 0x180000 0xce0000 && chk_dniimg 0xce0000; then bootm 0xd00000 - 0xce0040;else fw_recovery; fi"
saveenv
run bootcmd
Note: This new bootcmd will also unbrick devices that were bricked
by the bigger 4.19-6.1 kernels.
Note2: This method was tested with a WNDR4700. A big kernel with most
debug features enabled on v6.6.22 measured 4.30 MiB when compressed
with lzma. The uncompressed kernel is 12.34 MiB. This is over the 3 MiB,
the device reserves for the kernel... But it booted! For bigger kernels,
the device needs repartitioning of the the ubi partition due to the
kernel+dtb not fitting into the partition.
Note3: For initramfs development. I would advice to load the initramfs
images to 0x800000 (or higher). i.e.: tftp 800000 wndr4700.bin
Note4: the fw_recovery uboot command to transfer the factory image to
the flash still works.

This should have been included in the previous patch that
resized the kernel partition to fit bigger kernels.

This patch updates all current APM82181 devices over to that
"new LED naming scheme". This includes many updates to the
device-tree:
- dropped the deprecated, but beloved "label" property.
- rename all DT leds node names to led-#.
- add function and color properties.
- utilized panic-indicator property.
- dropped led- aliases (see below).
migration scripts for all devices are included.
For more information. See:
<https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/leds/leds-class.html>
For the future: It looks like the color+function properties
won over the dt-alias / label. This will need to be wired up
into openwrt eventually. For APM821xx the situation is that
all devices have a dedicated power and fault indicator.

The MX60's kernel is limited to 0x3EFC00 by the values in
mkmerakifw.c. Since the initramfs method of loading the
kernel seems to be working, this patch does away with the
use of the mkmerakifw tool for the MX60(W).
But this will go along with a change in u-boot as well.
So before you upgrade, please attach the serial cable and
perform:
| setenv owrt510_boot run meraki_ubi owrt_bootargs\; run owrt_load1 owrt_bootkernel\; run owrt_load2 owrt_bootkernel
| setenv bootcmd run owrt510_boot
| saveenv
Note: You won't be able to use older OpenWrt releases without
switching the bootcmd back to owrt_boot!
Note2: We are no longer compatible with older OpenWrt MX60 installs.
the legacy BOARD_NAME and SUPPORTED_DEVICES can be dropped. This is
because upgrades from older images are not possible without uboot env
changes anymore. Also the bogus BLOCKSIZE value
(which was set to 63k back then, in order to get the kernel properly
aligned after the fdt + meraki header) can be set to the NANDs real
value. The FDT size (which was needed for alignment) can now be
slimmed down as well.
