8d83a4f545 tplink-safeloader: increase kernel partition for CPE/WBSx10v1
This is a preparation for ath79 support of the CPE210/CPE510 v1.
Kernel size is chosen equal to the latest update for CPE610 v1.

This also updates the partition size in ar71xx target, so code
remains consistent if someone looks up the device. Since CPE210,
CPE510, WBS210 and WBS510 (all v1) share the same partition
layout definition, and are on deprecated target anyway, this
changes them all at once.

9aa8f87d27 ar71xx: Add "info" partition for TP-Link Archer C7 v5
This adds the "info" MTD partition, as it is specified in the
ath79 DTS:
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/master/target/linux/ath79/dts/qca9563_tplink_archer-c7-v5.dts#L35

This is required to set the WAN MAC address, as it is build based
on the LAN MAC address, which in turn has to be read from the
"info" partition:

34113999ef ar71xx: Remove ath10k packages from archer-c7-v1 (fixes FS#1743)
ath10k_pci driver crashes once loaded and causes boot loops on this
device as 5GHz radio QCA9880-AR1A shipped with this router is broken.
It's not possible to fix this problem in software, miniPCIe radio has to
be replaced.

We could've probably fixed crashing of the ath10k driver by reverting
following upstream commit:

 commit 1a7fecb766c83dace747f42b25bbb544b00a0163
 Author: Michal Kazior <michal.kazior@tieto.com>
 Date:   Sat Jan 24 12:14:48 2015 +0200

    ath10k: reset chip before reading chip_id in probe

but it's not worth the effort as it wouldn't make that 5GHz radio usable
anyway. So it seems more convenient to just remove the crashing driver
and provide bootable images, as I believe, that a router that is working
but degraded is better than a router that will not work.

For details please see discussions in PR[1] and in FS#1743[2].

This commit adds the default usb packages
- kmod-usb-core

- kmod-usb-ledtrig-usbport

(The C7 v5 configuration is based on the v4, therefore the change for v4
also applies for v5.)

9d35b68776 ar71xx: switch TP-Link RE450 v1 to dynamic partitioning
As mentioned in commit 5f24933 recent changes on ar71xx (switch to 4.14,
memory compaction, ...) cause an increase in kernel size, making it too
big for RE450.

RE450 images were not build due to the following error message:
os-image partition too big (more than 1572864 bytes): Success

Tested on RE450, device boots and was used to send this patch.

Notes:
TP-Link does not use bootstrap registers so without this patch reference
clock detects as 40MHz while it is actually 25MHz.
This is due to messed up bootstrap resistor configuration on the PCB.
Provided GPL code just forces 25MHz reference clock.
That causes booting with completely wrong clocks, for example, CPU tries
to boot at 1040MHz while the stock is 650MHz.
So this PR depends on PR #672 to remove 40MHz reference clock.
Thanks to Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org> for properly patching that.

ar71xx: switch CPE/WBS 210/510 to okli-loader
We recently increased the kernel partition size of the CPE/WBS 210/510.
This works fine for new installations of the factory image, but on
sysupgrades, the partition table read by the bootloader is not adjusted.
This limits the maximum size of the kernel loaded by the bootloader to the
old partition size.

While adjusting the partition table would be a cleanest solution, such a
migration would have to happen before an upgrade to a new version with a
newer kernel. This is error-prone and would require a two-step upgrade, as
we mark the partition table partition read-only.

Instead, switch from the lzma-loader with embedded kernel to the
okli-loader, so only the tiny lzma-loader is loaded by the bootloader as
"kernel", and the lzma-loader will then load the rest of the kernel by
itself.
