e9f9cd14cc bcm27xx: add support for Raspberry Pi Zero 2
Due to licensing uncertainty, we do not include the firmwares for the
wireless chips used in the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W. To have working
wireless, follow the instructions below.

For people building their own images:

  mkdir -p files/lib/firmware/brcm
  wget -P files/lib/firmware/brcm/ https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/raw/bullseye/debian/config/brcm80211/brcm/brcmfmac43436-sdio.bin
  wget -P files/lib/firmware/brcm/ https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/raw/bullseye/debian/config/brcm80211/brcm/brcmfmac43436-sdio.txt
  wget -P files/lib/firmware/brcm/ https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/raw/bullseye/debian/config/brcm80211/brcm/brcmfmac43436s-sdio.bin
  wget -P files/lib/firmware/brcm/ https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/raw/bullseye/debian/config/brcm80211/brcm/brcmfmac43436s-sdio.txt

Now build the OpenWrt image as usual, and it will include the firmware
files in the correct location.

For people using ext4 images:

Write the ext4 image to the sdcard, then mount the 2nd partition and put
the firmware files from the links above in /lib/firmware/brcm relative
from the mount point where the partition is mounted.

For people using squashfs images:

Write the squashfs image to the sdcard, place it in the Raspberry Pi
Zero 2 W, boot it and wait for the overlay filesystem to be created.
Find the offset of the overlay filesystem in sysfs:

  # cat /sys/devices/virtual/block/loop0/loop/offset
  25755648

Shut down the device, unplug the power and move the SD card to a Linux
computer. Mount the 2nd partition of the sdcard as a loop device with
the offset found earlier.

  sudo mount /dev/sdh2 -o loop,offset=25755648 /mnt/temp

Put the firmware files from the links above in /upper/lib/firmware/brcm
relative to the mount point where the loop device is mounted.

810eac8c7f bcm27xx: base-files: align network files
- Use the same order for /etc/board.d/02_network and
/lib/preinit/05_set_preinit_iface_brcm2708.
- Add missing RPi 400 and CM4 to /lib/preinit/05_set_preinit_iface_brcm2708.

85b1f4d8ca treewide: remove execute bit and shebang from board.d files
So far, board.d files were having execute bit set and contained a
shebang. However, they are just sourced in board_detect, with an
apparantly unnecessary check for execute permission beforehand.

Replace this check by one for existance and make the board.d files
"normal" files, as would be expected in /etc anyway.

Note:

This removes an apparantly unused '#!/bin/sh /etc/rc.common' in
target/linux/bcm47xx/base-files/etc/board.d/01_network

7d7aa2fd92 brcm2708: rename target to bcm27xx
This change makes the names of Broadcom targets consistent by using
the common notation based on SoC/CPU ID (which is used internally
anyway), bcmXXXX instead of brcmXXXX.
This is even used for target TITLE in make menuconfig already,
only the short target name used brcm so far.

Despite, since subtargets range from bcm2708 to bcm2711, it seems
appropriate to use bcm27xx instead of bcm2708 (again, as already done
for BOARDNAME).

This also renames the packages brcm2708-userland and brcm2708-gpu-fw.
