50fdc0374b ath79: provide label MAC address
This patch adds the label MAC address for several devices in
ath79.

Some devices require setting the MAC address in 02_network:

For the following devices, the netif device can be linked in
device tree, but the MAC address cannot be read:
- alfa-network,ap121f
- avm,fritz300e
- ubnt-xm devices

For the following devices, label MAC address is tied to lan or
wan, so no node to link to exists in device tree:
- adtran,bsap1800-v2
- adtran,bsap1840
- dlink,dir-842-c1/-c2/-c3
- engenius,ecb1750
- iodata,etg3-r
- iodata,wn-ac1167dgr
- iodata,wn-ac1600dgr
- iodata,wn-ac1600dgr2
- iodata,wn-ag300dgr
- nec,wg800hp
- nec,wg1200cr
- trendnet,tew-823dru

6648e9458f ath79: set mib-poll-interval on mdio0 attached ar83xx switch
Commit "generic: ar8216: add mib_poll_interval switch attribute" sets
mib-poll-interval as disabled by default (was set to 2s), so it makes
switch LEDs trigger disfunctional on devices which don't have
mib-poll-interval set.

So this patch sets mib-poll-interval to 500ms on devices which have
ar83xx switch connected to mdio0 bus, as the same value was set for
built in switches in 443fc9ac35 ("ath79: use ar8216 for builtin
switch").

Some measurements performed on TP-Link Archer C7-v5:

 mib-type=0, mib-poll-interval=500ms (10s pidstat)

  Average:  %usr %system  %guest   %wait    %CPU   CPU  Command
  Average:  0.00    1.93    0.00    0.00    1.93     -  kworker/0:2

  iperf3 (30s): 334 Mbits/sec

 mib-type=0, mib-poll-interval=2s (10s pidstat)

  Average:  %usr %system  %guest   %wait    %CPU   CPU  Command
  Average:  0.00    1.14    0.00    0.00    1.14     -  kworker/0:2

  iperf3 (30s): 334 Mbits/sec

So it seems like we get 4x faster LED refresh rate for additional 0.8%
CPU load.

d03aae1a09 ath79: add support for TP-Link Archer C6 v2
This patch adds support for TP-Link Archer C6 v2 (EU)

Hardware specification:
- SOC: Qualcomm QCA9563 @ 775MHz
- Flash: GigaDevice GD25Q64CSIG (8MiB)
- RAM: Zentel A3R1GE40JBF (128 MiB DDR2)
- Ethernet: Qualcomm QCA8337N: 4x 1Gbps LAN + 1x 1Gbps WAN
- Wireless:
  - 2.4GHz (bgn) QCA9563 integrated (3x3)
  - 5GHz (ac) Qualcomm QCA9886 (2x2)
- Button: 1x power, 1x reset, 1x wps
- LED: 6x LEDs: power, wlan2g, wlan5g, lan, wan, wps
- UART: There's no UART header on the board

Flash instructions:

Upload
openwrt-ath79-generic-tplink_archer-c6-v2-squashfs-factory.bin
via the router Web interface.

Flash instruction using tftp recovery:

1. Connect the computer to one of the LAN ports of the router
2. Set the computer IP to 192.168.0.66
3. Start a tftp server with the OpenWrt factory image in the
   tftp root directory renamed to ArcherC6v2_tp_recovery.bin.
4. Connect power cable to router, press and hold the reset
   button and turn the router on
5. Keep the reset button pressed until the WPS LED lights up
6. Wait ~150 seconds to complete flashing

According to the GPL source the non-EU variant has different
GPIOs assigned to some of the LEDs and buttons. The flash
layout might be different as well. The wikidevi entry for
Archer A6/C6 assumes they are identical.
