Convert the Enterasys WS-AP3710i access point to use the simpleImage
wrapper.
This is necessary, as the bootlaoder does not align the DTB correctly
(and does not support altering the FDT loadaddress). Booting images with
kernels 5.15 and later can break depending on the alignment on the DTB
within the FIT image.

This is an automatically generated commit which aids following Kernel patch history,
as git will see the move and copy as a rename thus defeating the purpose.

patch 150-arch-powerpc-simpleboot-prevent-overwrite-of-CPU1-sp.patch

with 6.1, the kernel no longer fitted into the 16 MiB and
kicking down the can and increasing KERNEL_SIZE to 20 MiB
didn't help as the device failed to boot.
Using 'kernel-bin | gzip | uimage gzip' didn't work since the
uboot does not have enough heap to decompress these big kernels.
And finally playing around with uboot was more a hassle than
converting this device to take the simpleImage-boot-route in
the future.
Note: The device now takes even longer on the first boot-up after
the flash due to JFFS2 initializing all the remaining flash.
Be prepared to wait up to 10 minutes before the green status LED
stops blinking and will shine a solid green!
(On the plus site: the device now has ~10 MiB of additional
space for rootfs+rootfs_data).
Note2: This patch includes a kernel patch refresh.

Let's change wrapper address to safe value.
Tested on: TL-WDR4900, BR200-WP
