As discussed in 1d18a14a90 ("ath79: really fix TP-Link Archer C7
v2 MAC address"), stock firmware MAC address assignment is
actually as follows:
wlan0 (5GHz) : -1
wlan1 (2.4GHz) : 0
eth1 (LAN) : 0
eth0 (WAN) : 1
This has never been fixed for ar71xx, so let's do it now.
Note that with WDR4900 v2 even both wlan0 and wlan1 where assigned
to basemac-1 before ...

This fixes commit bae927c551 ("ar71xx: add support for TP-LINK CPE510
V2.0") where the support for this device wasn't optimal.
Device support for the CPE510v2 so far has been a hack to enable
flashing with CPE510v1 images. Those even have different hardware (e.g.
additional ethernet port).
With this patch, we provide proper support for this device in ar71xx.
Installation:
- Flash factory image through stock firmware WEB UI or through TFTP
- To get to TFTP recovery just hold reset button while powering on
for around 4-5 seconds and release.
- Rename factory image to recovery.bin
- Stock TFTP server IP: 192.168.0.100
- Stock device TFTP address: 192.168.0.254

Without this patch, an extra entry appears for AR9287 GPIO
that duplicates WLAN LED but in fact drives nothing:
gpiochip1: GPIOs 502-511, ath9k-phy0:
gpio-502 ( |netgear:blue:wlan ) out hi
gpio-503 ( |netgear:amber:test ) out hi
gpio-504 ( |netgear:green:power ) out lo
gpio-505 ( |rfkill ) in hi
gpio-507 ( |wps ) in hi
gpio-508 ( |reset ) in hi
gpio-510 ( |ath9k-phy0 ) out hi <===!
The pin pointed above is default LED GPIO (8) for AR9287.
For WNR2200 it is not connected anywhere - pin 0 drives blue WLAN
LED instead - but initialization code is missing that information.
This fix calls ap9x_pci_setup_wmac_led_pin() function at device
setup, forcing WLAN LED pin to be 0 and removing redundant entry.

While flashing lots of RB2011 devices, I noticed that
some of them refused to boot properly, failing over the NAND parameters.
Checking in detail shows that some device seem to use another NAND flash
which only support standard 2048-byte pages, without 512-byte subpage support.
This commit disables usage of these small subpage completely.
Advantages:
- Both NAND's with(out) subpage support are working now
- The nand speed increases a bit (measured roughly 1%) in typical usecases
Disadvantages:
- The maximum storage capacity decreases by ~0.2%
as small changes can consume a full page (2048 bytes) now.

Flashing instructions using recovery method over TFTP
1. Unplug the ethernet cable from the router.
2. Using paper clip press and hold the router's reset button. Make sure
you can feel it depressed by the paper clip. Do not release the button
until step 4.
3. While keeping the reset button pressed in, plug the ethernet cable
back into the AP. Keep the reset button depressed until you see the
device's LEDs flashing in upgrade mode (alternating LED1/LED3 and
LED2/LED4), this may take up to 25 seconds.
4. You may release the reset button, now the device should be in TFTP
transfer mode.
5. Set a static IP on your Computer's NIC. A static IP of 192.168.1.25/24
should work.
6. Plug the PoE injector's LAN cable directly to your computer.
7. Start tftp client and issue following commands:

The QCA955X is affected by a hardware bug which causes link-loss of the
SGMII link between SoC and PHY. This happens on change of link-state or
speed.
It is not really known what causes this bug. It definitely occurs when
using a AR8033 Gigabit Ethernet PHY.
Qualcomm solves this Bug in a similar fashion. We need to apply the fix
on a per-device base via platform-data as performing the fixup work will
break connectivity in case the SGMII interface is connected to a Switch.
This bug was first proposed to be fixed by Sven Eckelmann in 2016.

* DHCP-Option 66 (TFTP server name): pointing to a local TFTP
server within the same subnet of the DHCP range
* DHCP-Option 67 (Bootfile-Name): matching the initramfs filename

2. Press the reset button on the board and keep that pressed.
3. Connect the board to your local network via its Internet port.
4. Release the button after the LEDs on the board are turned off.
Now the board should load and start the initramfs image from
the TFTP server.
5. Now connect the board via either of its LAN ports (2 or 3).

This is due to messed up bootstrap resistor configuration on the PCB.
Provided GPL code just forces 25MHz reference clock.
That causes booting with completely wrong clocks, for example, CPU tries
to boot at 1040MHz while the stock is 650MHz.
So this PR depends on PR #672 to remove 40MHz reference clock.
Thanks to Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org> for properly patching that.
