This patch increases available space from 20MB to 86MB.
Netgrear OEM firmware contains a 'netgear' partition followed 'ubi',
which can be used in openwrt for larger ubi space. (similar to
Netgear R7800).
original author (notmyrealhandle) tested this on R7500v2 and point that
OEM firmware can auto rebuild this partition (if used by openwrt).

Remove the "firmware" partition definition from the DTS of R7800
to fix sysupgrade.
Commit 4645a6d3 defined CONFIG_MTD_SPLIT_UIMAGE_FW=y for ipq806x
and that causes mtd to misbehave as additional kernel and ubi
partitions are detected from inside the "firmware" partition.
[ 1.111324] 0x000001480000-0x000001880000 : "kernel"
[ 1.121005] 0x000001880000-0x000007900000 : "ubi"
[ 1.283912] 0x000007900000-0x000008000000 : "reserve"
[ 1.296407] 0x000001480000-0x000007900000 : "firmware"
[ 1.468043] no rootfs found after FIT image in "firmware"
[ 2.426860] 2 uimage-fw partitions found on MTD device firmware
[ 2.426931] 0x000001480000-0x000001880000 : "kernel"
[ 2.440420] 0x000001880000-0x000007900000 : "ubi"
Both kernel and ubi are already defined in DTS, so this duplication
leads into errors in sysupgrade:
Writing from <stdin> to kernel ...
ubiattach: error!: strtoul: unable to parse the number '6 mtd10'
ubiattach: error!: bad MTD device number: "6 mtd10"
The partition is defined to same area as kernel+ubi, and is not
needed for sysupgrade anymore. Remove it to fix things.
Only tested for the R7800 but all of them should behave equal.

These pins seem to be used by hw exclusively, so claiming it in
kernel causes an error in syslog in k4.14+.

According to OEM bootlog entry mass market devices are ipq8064 SoC
v2.0:
> socinfo_init: v6, id=202, ver=2.0, raw_id=2064, raw_ver=2064, hw_plat=0, hw_plat_ver=65536
I've checked C2600, EA8500 and VR2600v but couldn't find other
boards bootlog. I think it's safe to assume that other boards are
also v2.0. R7500 may be an exception because it was the first
device to hit the market.
So switch to v2.0 dtsi.

Starting with kernel 4.14 and gcc 7, the kernel doesn't fit into the
2 MB reserved for the kernel partition by the OEM firmware anymore.
This patch increases the kernel partition from 2 MB to 4 MB, at the
expense of the rootfs, for all supported kernels.
WARNING: This breaks sysupgrade! Flashing a firmware containing this
changed partitioning from an older image with 2 MB reserved for the
kernel partion requires the tftp recovery procedure, thereby losing
all settings.
This change follows the functional example of the Netgear r7800, but
has not been runtime tested on a Netgear Nighthawk X4 R7500v2.

- Rebased the patches for 4.14
- Dropped spi-qup and 0027, 0028, 0029
clk patches since it's already included
in upstream.
Tested on IPQ AP148 Board:
1) NOR boot and NAND boot
2) Tested USB and PCIe interfaces
3) WDOG test
4) cpu frequency scaling
5) ethernet, 2G and 5G WiFi
6) ubi sysupgrade
