The data RAC is left disabled by the bootloader in some SoCs, at least in
the core it boots from. Enabling this feature increases the performance up
to +30% depending on the task.
The kernel enables the whole RAC unconditionally on BMIPS3300 CPUs. Enable
the data RAC in a similar way also for BMIPS4350.
Tested on DGND3700 v1 (BCM6368) and HG556a (BCM6358).

The Actiontec R1000H is a gigabit wifi router, 2.4 GHz single band with
two external antennas. It comes with a coaxial HomePNA port.
Hardware:
- SoC: Broadcom BCM6368
- CPU: dual core BMIPS4350 V3.1 @400Mhz
- RAM: 64 MB DDR
- Flash: 32 MB parallel NOR
- LAN switch: Broadcom BCM53115, 5x 1Gbit

The HPNA hardware probably needs a firmware to make the coaxial port work.
In the OEM firmware, it's apparently sent with an utility (inhpna) through
the ethernet port.
Installation via CFE web UI:
1. Connect the UART serial port.
2. Power on the router and press enter at the console prompt to stop the
bootloader.
4. Browse to http://192.168.1.1 and upload the OpenWrt CFE firmware
5. Wait a few minutes for it to finish

The DGND3700v2 renames the cferam bootloader from cferam to cfeXXX, where XXX
is the number of firmware upgrades performed by the bootloader. Other bcm63xx
devices rename cferam.000 to cferam.XXX, but this device is special because
the cferam name isn't changed on the first firmware flashing but it's changed
on the subsequent ones.
Therefore, we need to look for "cfe" instead of "cferam" to properly detect
the cferam partition and fix the bootlop.
