It's a BCM4906 based device (2 CPU cores). It has 512 MiB of RAM, 4 LAN
ports, 1 WAN port, 2 USB ports, NAND flash. WiFi unknown at this point.
Flashing is possible using CFE only, proper image will be worked on
later.

(cherry picked from commit 8d24da1470)
This adds the latest version of ofpart commit. It hopefully
1. Doesn't break compilation
2. Doesn't break partitioning
(this time).
It's required to implement fixed partitioning with some quirks. It's
required by bcm53xx, bcm4908, kirkwood, lantiq and mvebu.

(cherry picked from commit 7a7b2fd809)
This allows using the last integrated PHY (and so e.g. WAN port on the
ASUS GT-AC5300).

(cherry picked from commit ad8b759fd1)
This adds quirks support to the "ofpart" parser. It's required to
support fixed partitions that require some extra logic.
Right now only BCM4908 binding is supported (BCM4908 requires detecting
currently used "firmware" partition).

Our patch refresh tool creates quite a big diff for these patches,
as it does not use rename syntax.
Push the refresh separately so it does not pollute the next kernel
bump. This is a purely cosmetic change.

There seems to be a problem with setting #WP. On the other hand ignoring
the #WP seems to work. rootfs_data UBI volume seems to persist changes.

BCM4906, BCM4908 and BCM49408 are SoCs with 64 bit ARMv8 B53 CPUs.
Upstream Linux is slowly getting support for that SoCs family so it
makes sense to add target for it.
This prepares initial support for:
1. Asus GT-AC5300
BCM4908 based device (4 CPUs) with 1024 MiB RAM, NAND, 8 LAN ports.
2. Netgear R8000P
BCM4906 based device (2 CPUs) with 512 MiB RAM, NAND, 4 LAN ports.
Flashing info will come later as we learn how to generate proper images.
It isn't usable yet (it only produces a bootable kernel) so "source-only"
is used.
