This is a temporary workaround to get the ethernet working, since external
switch is connected by MDIO and it needs additional work.

This adds experimental ethernet support for BCM6318, BCM6328, BCM6362, BCM6368
and BCM63268.
BCM6358 needs a different driver, so there's no support for now.
Working devices:
- Comtrend AR-5315u
- Comtrend AR-5387un
- Comtrend VR-3025u
- Comtrend VR-3032u
Not working devices:
- Netgear DGND3700 v2 (no idea on how the external switch is connected)
- Huawei HG556a ver B (BCM6358 needs a separate driveer)

Introduce new patch for automatically detecting RAM size.
Some boards have a different amount of RAM depending on the HW revision.
Therefore, automatically detecting the RAM size instead of hard-coding it will
reduce the number of device definitions.

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

SMP isn't supported on BCM6358 since it has a shared TLB. Some boards boot
with CPU #1 instead of CPU #0, and this is currently not supported do to a
smp-bmips bug.

Like done for several targets already, splitting base-files into
subtarget will provide smaller images due to more specific
distribution of files per subtarget and allow to use default cases
more effectively.

IPSEC needs a reset before using its HW RNG.
Otherwise, the numbers generated won't be random at all.

This target has full device tree support, thus reducing the number of
patches needed for bcm63xx, in which there's a patch for every board.
The intention is to start with a minimal amount of downstream patches and
start upstreaming all of them.
Current status:
- Enabling EHCI/OHCI on BCM6358 causes a kernel panic.
- BCM63268 lacks Timer Clocks/Reset support.
- No PCI/PCIe drivers.
- No ethernet drivers.
