Originally, cns3xxx used it's own functions for mapping, reading and writing registers.
Upstream commit 802b7c06adc7 ("ARM: cns3xxx: Convert PCI to use generic config accessors")
removed the internal PCI config write function in favor of the generic one:
cns3xxx_pci_write_config() --> pci_generic_config_write()
cns3xxx_pci_write_config() expected aligned addresses, being produced by cns3xxx_pci_map_bus()
while the generic one pci_generic_config_write() actually expects the real address
as both the function and hardware are capable of byte-aligned writes.
This currently leads to pci_generic_config_write() writing
to the wrong registers on some ocasions.
First issue seen due to this:
- driver ath9k gets loaded
- The driver wants to write value 0xA8 to register PCI_LATENCY_TIMER, located at 0x0D
- cns3xxx_pci_map_bus() aligns the address to 0x0C
- pci_generic_config_write() effectively writes 0xA8 into register 0x0C (CACHE_LINE_SIZE)
This seems to cause some slight instability when certain PCI devices are used.
Another issue example caused by this this is the PCI bus numbering,
where the primary bus is higher than the secondary, which is impossible.
Before:
00:00.0 PCI bridge: Cavium, Inc. Device 3400 (rev 01) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode])
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 255
Bus: primary=02, secondary=01, subordinate=ff, sec-latency=0
After fix:
00:00.0 PCI bridge: Cavium, Inc. Device 3400 (rev 01) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode])
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 255
Bus: primary=00, secondary=01, subordinate=02, sec-latency=0
And very likely some more ..
Fix all by omitting the alignment being done in the mapping function.

Backort upstream patch which preserves oif of IPv6 link scoped packets.
The outgoing interface of IPv6 link scope packets can be changed by the
function ip6_route_me_harder. This is unwanted behavior for link local
packets and multicast packets as the outgoing interface is fixed and must
not be altered as it can break neighbor discovery and multicast listener
discovery.

Backport net: Allow class-e address assignment via ifconfig ioctl
While most distributions long ago switched to the iproute2 suite
of utilities, which allow class-e (240.0.0.0/4) address assignment,
distributions relying on busybox, toybox and other forms of
ifconfig cannot assign class-e addresses without this kernel patch.
While CIDR has been obsolete for 2 decades, and a survey of all the
open source code in the world shows the IN_whatever macros are also
obsolete... rather than obsolete CIDR from this ioctl entirely, this
patch merely enables class-e assignment, sanely.

Disable Marvell's hardware level MAC learning because it breaks station roaming.
When enabled it drops all frames that arrive from a MAC address
that is on a different port at learning table.
Problem description:
Multiple APs with inter-AP roaming connected to different ports,
when station moves from one AP on one port to another AP on another port,
traffic flow breaks down because the learning table is not updated.

The ledtrig-netdev was added to upstream Linux kernel 4.16, replace our
own version with the patch based on the upstream version.
This will remove the ledtrig-netdev support from kernel 3.18, because I
not want to spend time on backporting it to 3.18. This will make it
easier to use the upstream version with kernel 4.19, by just not
applying this patch.

This is a new & warm feature that allows nesting partiitons in DT and
mixing their types (e.g. static vs. dynamic). It's very useful for
boards that have most partitions static but some of them require extra
parsing (e.g. a "firmware" partition).
It's required to successfully backport support for new devices using
that new syntax in their DT files.
Since brcm63xx has a custom alternative patch the upstream one is being
reverted for it. The plan is to make brcm63xx use the upstream
implementation.
