In ath79, for several SoCs the console bootargs are defined to the
very same value in every device's DTS. Consolidate these definitions
in the SoC dtsi files and drop further redundant definitions elsewhere.
The only device without any bootargs set has been OpenMesh OM5P-AC V2.
This will now inherit the setting from qca955x.dtsi
While this is a cosmetic change, backporting it to 19.07 will be a
major help for anyone doing backports of device support. Without it,
every backporter would have to remember to manually add the chosen node
to the device's DTS.

(cherry picked from commit 635f111148)
This patch harmonizes the label and alias for art partitions
across ath79. Since lower case seems to be more frequent, use that
consistently.

Hardware
--------
SOC: QCA9558
RAM: 128M DDR2
Flash: 16MiB SPI-NOR
ETH: QCA8337N: 2x 10/100/1000 PoE and PoE pass-through
WiFi2: QCA9558 (bgn) 2T2R
WiFi5: 2x mPCIE with AR9582 (an) 2T2R
BTN: 1x Reset
GPIO: multiple GPIO on header, PoE passthrough enable
UART: 3.3V 115200 8N1 header on the board
WDG: ATTiny13 watchdog
JTAG: header on the board
USB: 1x connector and 1x header on the board
PoE: 10-32V input in ETH port 1, passthrough in port 2
mPCIE: 2x populated with radios (but replaceable)
OpenWrt is preinstalled from factory. To install use <your-image>-sysupgade.bin
using the web interface or with sysupgrade -n.
Flash from bootloader (in case failsafe does not work)
1. Connect the LibreRouter with a serial adapter (TTL voltage) to the UART
header in the board.
2. Connect an ETH cable and configure static ip addres 192.168.1.10/24
3. Turn on the device and stop the bootloader sending any key through the serial
interface.
4. Use a TFTP server to serve <your image>-sysupgrade.bin file.
5. Execute the following commands at the bootloader prompt:
ath> tftp 82000000 <your image>-sysupgrade.bin
ath> erase 0x9f050000 +$filesize
ath> cp.b 0x82000000 0x9f050000 $filesize
ath> bootm 0x9f050000
