CONFIG_BINFMT_MISC allows it to add support for new executable formats
to the kernel from user space, the kernel will then detect for example a
java binary and call the java execution program automatically. I am not
aware that this feature is used in OpenWrt and this could be used to
exploit something. Deactivate it for all targets for now.

Recently, upgrade device autodetection has been added to the mvebu target.
This exposes some shortcomings of the generic export_bootdevice function,
e.g. on the Turris Omnia: export_bootdevice silently reports the root
partition to be the boot device. This makes the sysupgrade process fail at
several places.
Fix this by clearly distinguishing between /proc/cmdline arguments which
specify the boot disk, and those which specify the root partition. Only in
the latter case, strip off the partition, and do it consistently.
root=PARTUUID=<pseudo PARTUUID for MBR> (any partition) and root=/dev/*
(any partition) are accepted.
The root of the problem is that the *existing* export_bootdevice in
/lib/upgrade/common.sh behaves differently, if the kernel is booted with
root=/dev/..., or if it is booted with root=PARTUUID=...
In the former case, it reports back major/minor of the root partition,
in the latter case it reports back major/minor of the complete boot disk.
Targets, which boot with root=/dev/... *and* use export_bootdevice /
export_partdevice, have added workarounds to this behaviour, by specifying
*negative* increments to the export_partdevice function.
Consequently, those targets have to be adapted to use positive increments,
otherwise they are broken by the change to export_bootdevice.

This adds support for kernel 4.9 and replaces the kernel 4.4 support.
These are lynxis test results:
panda-board a3 - works, but no network, but master/4.4 doesn't have network either.
panda-board-a4 - u-boot SPL refuse to boot.
beaglebone-black - works
beagle-board - usb attached network doesn't come up and I doesn't have a serial around.
beagle-board-xm - ToDo: image code is missing.
Kernel 4.4 does not look better, so we merge this anyway.
