The following devices have a Winbond W25Q256FV flash chip,
which does not have the RESET pin enabled by default,
and otherwise would require setting a bit in a status register.
Before moving to Linux 5.4, we had the patch:
0053-mtd-spi-nor-add-w25q256-3b-mode-switch.patch
which kept specific flash chips with explicit 3-byte and 4-byte address modes
to stay in 3-byte address mode while idle (after an erase or write)
by using a custom flag SPI_NOR_4B_READ_OP that was part of the patch.
this was obsoleted by the patch:
481-mtd-spi-nor-rework-broken-flash-reset-support.patch
which uses the newer upstream flag SNOR_F_BROKEN_RESET
for devices with a flash chip that cannot be hardware reset with RESET pin
and therefore must be left in 3-byte address mode when idle.
The new patch requires that the DTS of affected devices
have the property "broken-flash-reset", which was not yet added for most of them.
This commit adds the property for remaining affected devices in ramips target,
specifically because of the flash chip model.
However, it is possible that there are other devices
where the flash chip uses an explicit 4-byte address mode
and the RESET pin is not connected to the SOC on the board,
and those DTS would also need this property.

Convert most of the cases from mtd-mac-address to nvmem where
MAC addresses are set in the DTSI, but the partitions are only
located in the device DTS. This posed some problems earlier, since
in these cases we are using partitions before they are defined,
and the nvmem system did not seem to like that.
There have been a few different resolution approaches, based on
the different tradeoffs of deduplication vs. maintainability:
1. In many cases, the partition tables were identical except for
the firmware partition size, and the firmware partition was
the last in the table.
In these cases, the partition table has been moved to the
DTSI, and only the firmware partition's "reg" property has
been kept in the DTS files. So, the updated nvmem definition
could stay in the DTSI files as well.
2. For all other cases, splitting up the partition table would
have introduced additional complexity. Thus, the nodes to be
converted to nvmem have been moved to the DTS files where the
partitioning was defined.
3. For Netgear EX2700 and WN3000RP v3, the remaining DTSI file
was completely dissolved, as it was quite small and the name
was not really nice either.
4. The D-Link DIR-853 A3 was converted to nvmem as well, though
it is just a plain DTS file not taken care of in the first
wave.
In addition, some minor rearrangements have been made for tidyness.
Not covered (yet) by this patch are:
* Various unielec devices
* The D-Link DIR-8xx family

The "/dts-v1/;" identifier is supposed to be present once at the
top of a device tree file after the includes have been processed.
In ramips, we therefore requested to have in the DTS files so far,
and omit it in the DTSI files. However, essentially the syntax of
the parent mtxxxx/rtxxxx DTSI files already determines the DTS
version, so putting it into the DTS files is just a useless repetition.
Consequently, this patch puts the dts-v1 statement into the top-level
SoC-based DTSI files, and removes all other occurences.
Since the dts-v1 statement needs to be before any other definitions,
this also moves the includes accordingly where necessary.
