Daniel Gonzalez Cabanelas e12c72bb52 brcm63xx: Add Sercomm AD1018 support
Add support for the Sercomm AD1018 router

This a BCM6328 based board, 128 MB RAM, 128 MiB NAND flash,
with an onboard BCM43217 wifi, 4 ethernet ports and 1 USB
host port (not soldered). The board also has an FXS chip (Si32177)
connected via SPI (SS2#), without support in LEDE.

Since NAND flash chips aren't still supported in brcm63xx, the
support is for now added to work only with SPI flash chips. Therefore
hardware modding, soldering a new SPI flash chip, is required
to make the board work with LEDE (tested and working OK).
The flash at dts is intentionally left without partitioning to let
the user choose a NOR chip of any size (8, 16 or 32 MB).

The image neede to flash onto a Broadcom 63xx-series board depends on the
board, method you are using to flash, and, for web-based flash, on the version
of the Broadcom code your router uses.

There are two major revisions of the Broadcom code as far as imagetags are
concerned, before 3.08 and after 3.08, however there are some variations 
within in that, either due to vendor differences or due to changes at 
Broadcom (it's not clear yet which is the case).  In addtion Pirelli modified
the Broadcom code, so Alice Gate models use a different imagetag than any 
other vendor.

The imagetag format for flashing via CFE is the same for almost all the 
boards, and is the same for all images generated by the imagetag utility.
Images flashable using cfe are labelled openwrt-<board>-<filesystem>-cfe.bin

The imagetags for tftp/ftp flashing is based on Broadcom 3.00-3.04 imagetags
and is known to be correct as the source code GPL and is available for reading.

Broadcom code 2.21 is based on the BT Voyager firmware image I looked at.  It
may in fact be BT Voyager-specific.  2.21 is actually more difficult to deal
with the imagetag from 3.00 as it has three different CRC calculations in
addtition to the header CRC.

Broadcom 3.00-3.02 flashing has been tested on Comtrend CT-5261, CT-536 and 
Tecom GW6000, and is the version of the flashing that was present before the
imagetags were split by broadcom code version (early June 2009)

3.04 is guessed to be the same as 3.00-3.02 based on available information

Broadom 3.06 is thought to be the same as 3.00-3.02, however the only 3.06 
this author (Daniel Dickinson) has seen is the Alice Gate (Pirelli) firmware
which is known to be different due to vendor (Pirelli) modifications to the
Broadcom code.

Broadcom 3.10 uses an imagetag that is believed to apply to all 3.10 and 3.12
versions, and has been tested on the Tecom GW6200.  This version introdec changes to
the imagetag to deal with TR69 (a remote rouer management system developed by the
DSL forum).  There is a field for vendor-specific information, that at least in some
cases is not optional.  It is based on the hexedit of a neufbox4 firmware image, the
information in https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/4987, and the hexedit of a Tecom
GW6200 image.

Some boards share the same tag format, but require vendor-specific fields in
the board.  In that case the tagid is shared, but the filename of the generated
image reflects the router for which the image was created.
