80c61c161a treewide: use wpad-basic for not small flash targets
Add out of the box support for 802.11r and 802.11w to all targets not
suffering from small flash.

Mathias did all the heavy lifting on this, but I'm the one who should
get shouted at for committing.

30d75720fa arc770: Introduce images for SD-cards
Historically on ARC we started from initramfs-based images because:
 a) It was much easier to debug especially when toolchain and other
    components were changing quite dynamically
 b) It was our usual approach for embedded Linux

But now with ARC port of Lede/OpenWRT getting more stable and mature
we're ready for more real-life scenarios with FS permanently stored
on SD-card. This essentially benefits from ability to setup devices
that survive reboots with all settings and extra packages kept in place.

Still we keep an ability to build images with initramfs.
This allows us to use storage-less simulators for testing still.

ca519d4f8d arc770: Remove MMC kernel modules, they are built-in now
If we want to boot from SD-card we need to have corresponding
drivers already built-in so there's no point in having these
modules.

cac43c0b71 arc770: build kmod-ath9k-htc wpad-mini by default
AXS101 beind a development board lacks built-in wireles inerfaces.
So we have to use external USB dongles to turn the board into
wireless router.

The best USB Wi-Fi dongles to work in AP-mode seem to be based on
ath9k-htc chipset.

And so with that change we add support of mentioned dongles in
default and axs101 builds.

576621f1e3 linux: add support of Synopsys ARC770-based boards
This patch introduces support of new boards with ARC cores.

 [1] Synopsys SDP board
     This is a new-generation development board from Synopsys that
     consists of base-board and CPU tile-board (which might have a real
     ASIC or FPGA with CPU image).
     It sports a lot of DesignWare peripherals like GMAC, USB, SPI, I2C
     etc and is intended to be used for early development of ARC-based
     products.

 [2] nSIM
     This is a virtual board implemented in Synopsys proprietary
     software simulator (even though available for free for open source
     community). This board has only serial port as a peripheral and so
     it is meant to be used for runtime testing which is especially
     useful during bring-up of new tools and platforms.
     What's also important ARC cores are very configurable so there're
     many variations of options like cache sizes, their line lengths,
     additional hardware blocks like multipliers, dividers etc. And this
     board could be used to make sure built software still runs on
     different HW configurations.
