abc17bf306 ath79: convert mtd-mac-address to nvmem implementation
Define nvmem-cells and convert mtd-mac-address to nvmem implementation.
The conversion is done with an automated script.

d284e6ef0f treewide: convert mtd-mac-address-increment* to generic implementation
Rework patch 681-NET-add-mtd-mac-address-support to implement
only the function to read the mac-address from mtd.
Generalize mtd-mac-address-increment function so it can be applied
to any source of of_get_mac_address.
Rename any mtd-mac-address-increment to mac-address-increment.
Rename any mtd-mac-address-increment-byte to mac-address-increment-byte.

This should make simplify the conversion of target to nvmem implementation.

3a4b751110 ath79: enable UART in SoC DTSI files
The uart node is enabled on all devices except one (GL-USB150 *).
Thus, let's not have a few hundred nodes to enable it, but do not
disable it in the first place.

Where the majority of devices is using it, also move the serial0
alias to the DTSI.

*) Since GL-USB150 even defines serial0 alias, the missing uart
   is probably just a mistake. Anyway, disable it for now so this
   patch stays cosmetic.

55d2db0e8c ath79: add support for Meraki MR12
Port device support for Meraki MR12 from the ar71xx target to ath79.

Specifications:

  - SoC: AR7242-AH1A CPU
  - RAM: 64MiB (NANYA NT5DS32M16DS-5T)
  - NOR Flash: 16MiB (MXIC MX25L12845EMI-10G)
  - Ethernet: 1 x PoE Gigabit Ethernet Port (SoC MAC + AR8021-BL1E PHY)
  - Ethernet: 1 x 100Mbit port (SoC MAC+PHY)
  - Wi-Fi: Atheros AR9283-AL1A (2T2R, 11n)

Installation:

  1. Requires TFTP server at 192.168.1.101, w/ initramfs & sysupgrade .bins
  2. Open shell case
  3. Connect a USB->TTL cable to headers furthest from the RF shield
  4. Power on the router; connect to U-boot over 115200-baud connection
  5. Interrupt U-boot process to boot Openwrt by running:
       setenv bootcmd bootm 0xbf0a0000; saveenv;
       tftpboot 0c00000 <filename-of-initramfs-kernel>.bin;
       bootm 0c00000;
  6. Copy sysupgrade image to /tmp on MR12
  7. sysupgrade /tmp/<filename-of-sysupgrade>.bin

Notes:

  - kmod-owl-loader is still required to load the ART partition into the
    driver.

  - The manner of storing MAC addresses is updated from ar71xx; it is
    at 0x66 of the 'config' partition, where it was discovered that the
    OEM firmware stores it. This is set as read-only. If you are
    migrating from ar71xx and used the method mentioned above to
    upgrade, use kmod-mtd-rw or UCI to add the MAC back in. One more
    method for doing this is described below.

  - Migrating directly from ar71xx has not been thoroughly tested, but
    one method has been used a couple of times with good success,
    migrating 18.06.2 to a full image produced as of this commit. Please
    note that these instructions are only for experienced users, and/or
    those still able to open their device up to flash it via the serial
    headers should anything go wrong.

    1) Install kmod-mtd-rw and uboot-envtools
    2) Run `insmod mtd-rw.ko i_want_a_brick=1`
    3) Modify /etc/fw_env.config to point to the u-boot-env partition.
       The file /etc/fw_env.config should contain:

       # MTD device   env offset  env size    sector size
       /dev/mtd1      0x00000     0x10000     0x10000

       See https://openwrt.org/docs/techref/bootloader/uboot.config
       for more details.

    4) Run `fw_printenv` to verify everything is correct, as per the
       link above.
    5) Run `fw_setenv bootcmd bootm 0xbf0a0000` to set a new boot address.
    6) Manually modify /lib/upgrade/common.sh's get_image function:
       Change ...

       cat "$from" 2>/dev/null | $cmd

       ... into ...

       (
         dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=$((0x66)) ; # Pad the first 102 bytes
         echo -ne '\x00\x18\x0a\x12\x34\x56'  ; # Add in MAC address
         dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=$((0x20000-0x66-0x6)) ; # Pad the rest
         cat "$from" 2>/dev/null
       ) | $cmd

       ... which, during the upgrade process, will pad the image by
       128K of zeroes-plus-MAC-address, in order for the ar71xx's
       firmware partition -- which starts at 0xbf080000 -- to be
       instead aligned with the ath79 firmware partition, which
       starts 128K later at 0xbf0a0000.

    7) Copy the sysupgrade image into /tmp, as above
    8) Run `sysupgrade -F /tmp/<sysupgrade>.bin`, then wait

    Again, this may BRICK YOUR DEVICE, so make *sure* to have your
    serial cable handy.
