331892f85f treewide: drop shebang from non-executable lib files
This drops the shebang from another bunch of files in various /lib
folders, as these are sourced and the shebang is useless.

Fix execute bit in one case, too.

This should cover almost all trivial cases now, i.e. where /lib is
actually used for library files.

7d12f29ae1 bcm63xx: fix bcm63xx ethernet kernel panics
Calling netdev_reset_queue() from _stop() functions is causing sporadic kernel
panics on bcm63xx, which happen mainly on BCM6318 and BCM6328.
This reverts to the previous behaviour, which called netdev_reset_queue() from
_open() functions.

Tested on Comtrend AR-5315u (BCM6318).

513f7171a3 rules: fix COMMITCOUNT logic
The newly added $(COMMITCOUNT) variable was wrongly increased by plus
one. The addition should have been only added to $(AUTORELEASE) as
OpenWrt traditionally starts counting at one rather than zero.

$(AUTORELEASE) counts the commits since the last bump, which is zero on
the version bump commit itself.

This commit increases $(AUTORELEASE) by one while leaving $(COMMITCOUNT)
as is.

The base-files package is the only package using $(COMMITCOUNT) so far
and requires a pseudo commit to keep the PKG_RELEASE correct. A non
functional change (Copyright bump) is done in the next commit.

01e4274c21 toolchain/libstdcpp: disable dual ABI and default to new
GCC 5.1 changed the std::string ABI in order to properly support C++11.
For compatibility with libraries compiled with the older ABI, that is,
linking between old-abi.so and new-abi.bin, both ABIs are enabled. In
terms of OpenWrt, all packages are compiled with the same toolchain,
which means these issues do not need to be handled.

Most importantly, this results in a significant size reduction of
libstdpp:

Before:

450794 bytes

After:

327752 bytes

Tested with all OpenWrt packages.

b67d086ef3 malta: update target configs and fix build warnings
Comment out some conflicting target configs that are set from subtarget
configs, which sometimes lead to kernel compile warnings:

1fb413e657 realtek: build ZyXEL vendor firmware compatible initramfs
Append a device specific version trailer used by the stock
firmware upgrade application to validate firmwares.

The trailer contains a list of ZyXEL firmware version
numbers, which includes a four letter hardware identifier.
The stock web UI requires that the current hardware matches
one of the listed versions, and that the version number is
larger than a model specific minimum value. The minimum
version varies between V1.00 and V2.60 for the currently
known GS1900 models. The number is not used anywhere else
to our knowlege, and has no direct relation to the version
info in the u-image header.  We can therefore use an
arbitrary value larger than V2.60.

The stock firmware upgrade application will only load and
flash the part of the file specified in the u-image header,
regardless of file size.  It can therefore not be used to
flash images with an appended rootfs. There is therefore no
need to include the trailer in other images than the
initramfs. This prevents accidentally bricking by attempts
to flash other images from the stock web UI.

Stock images support all models in the series, listing
all of them in the version trailer.  OpenWrt provide model
specific images.  We therefore only list the single supported
hardware identifier for each image.  This eliminates the risk
of flashing the wrong OpenWrt image from stock web UI.

OpenWrt can be installed from stock firmware in two steps:

   1) flash OpenWrt initramfs image from stock web gui
   2) boot OpenWrt and sysupgrade to a squasfs image

The OpenWrt squashfs image depends on a static partition
map in the DTS.  It can only be installed to the "firmware"
partition.  This partition is labeled "RUNTIME1" in u-boot
and in stock firmware, and is referred to as "image 0" in
the stock flash management tool.  The OpenWrt initramfs
can be installed and run from either partitions. But if
you want to keep stock irmware in the spare system partition,
then you must make sure stock firmware is installed to the
"RUNTIME2" partition referred to as "image 1" in the stock
web UI. And the initial OpenWrt initramfs must be flashed
to "RUNTIME1"/"image 0".

The stock flash management application supports direct
selection of both which partition to flash and which
partition to boot next.  This allows software controlled
"dual-boot" between OpenWrt and stock firmware, without
using console access to u-boot. u-boot use the "bootpartition"
variable stored in the second u-boot environment to select
which of the two system partitions to boot.  This variable
is set by the stock flash management application, by direct
user input.  It can also be set in OpenWrt using e.g

 fw_setsys bootpartition 1

to select "RUNTIME2"/"image 1" as default, assuming a
stock firmware version is installed in that partition.

ca4832fcac realtek: use vendor-specific magic for ZyXEL
The stock firmware of the ZyXEL GS1900 series use a non-standard
u-image magic.  This is not enforced by the stock u-boot, which is
why we could boot images with the default magic.  The flash
management application of the stock firmware will however verify
the magic, and refuse any image with another value.

Convert to vendor-specific value to get flash management support
in stock firmware, including the ability to upgrade to OpenWrt
directly from stock web UI.
