641e4f2f04 mediatek: add Xiaomi Redmi Router AX6000 support
Hardware specification:
  SoC: MediaTek MT7986A 4x A53
  Flash: ESMT F50L1G41LB 128 MB
  RAM: K4A4G165WF-BCWE 512 MB
  Ethernet: 4x 10/100/1000 Mbps
  WiFi1: MT7976GN 2.4GHz ax 4x4
  WiFi2: MT7976AN 5GHz ax 4x4
  Button: Mesh, Reset

Flash instructions:
  1. Gain ssh and serial port access, see the link below:
     https://openwrt.org/toh/xiaomi/redmi_ax6000#installation
  2. Use ssh or serial port to log in to the router, and
     execute the following command:
     nvram set boot_wait=on
     nvram set flag_boot_rootfs=0
     nvram set flag_boot_success=1
     nvram set flag_last_success=1
     nvram set flag_try_sys1_failed=8
     nvram set flag_try_sys2_failed=8
     nvram commit
  3. Set a static ip on the ethernet interface of your computer
     (e.g. default: ip 192.168.31.100, gateway 192.168.31.1)
  4. Download the initramfs image, rename it to initramfs.bin,
     and host it with the tftp server.
  5. Interrupt U-Boot and run these commands:
     setenv mtdparts nmbm0:1024k(bl2),256k(Nvram),256k(Bdata),2048k(factory),2048k(fip),256k(crash),256k(crash_log),112640k(ubi)
     saveenv
     tftpboot initramfs.bin
     bootm
  6. After openwrt boots up, use scp or luci web
     to upload sysupgrade.bin to upgrade.

Revert to stock firmware:
  Restore mtdparts back to default, then use the
  vendor's recovery tool (Windows only).

uboot-envtools: mediatek_filogic: fix BPi-R3 when no OS is installed
Fix accessing the environment in case no OS is installed on the flash
media selected for boot as this is possible when booting initramfs.
In case of relying on the device specified to be mounted as rootfs to
be present, rather just use the kernel cmdline 'root' variable as a
hint to decide where to read/write the U-Boot environment.
