Thibaut VARÈNE b90cad2c2e ramips: fix RBM33G partitioning
This patch improves 5684d087418d176cfdef4e045e1950ca7ba3b09f by correcting
the partition scheme for the "RouterBoot" section of the flash.

The partition scheme initially submitted is incorrect and does not reflect
the actual flash structure.

The "RouterBoot" section (name matching OEM) is subdivided in several
static segments, as they are on ar71xx RB devices albeit with different
offsets and sizes.
The naming convention from ar71xx has been preserved, except for the
bootloaders which are named "bootloader1" and "bootloader2" to avoid
confusion with the master "RouterBoot" partition.
The preferred 'fixed-partitions' DTS node syntax is used, with nesting
support as introduced in 2a598bbaa3.
"partition" is used for node names, with associated "label" to match
policy set by 6dd94c2781.

The OEM source code also define a "RouterBootFake" partition at the
beginning of the secondary flash chip: to avoid trouble if OEM ever makes
use of that space, it is also defined here.

The resulting partition scheme looks like this:

This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution.

To build your own firmware you need a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case
sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack
of a case sensitive file system.

You need gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make, find, grep, diff,
unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers installed.

1. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to obtain all the latest package definitions
defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

2. Run "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks for all obtained
packages into package/feeds/

3. Run "make menuconfig" to select your preferred configuration for the
toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

4. Run "make" to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build
the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the Linux kernel & all
chosen applications for your target system.
