Flashing instructions:
Depending on the installed firmware, there are vastly different
methods to flash a MR18. These have been documented on:
<https://openwrt.org/toh/meraki/mr18>
Tip:
Use an initramfs from a previous release and then use sysupgrade
to get to the later releases. This is because the initramfs can
no longer be built by the build-bots due to its size (>8 MiB).
Note on that:
Upgrades from AR71XX releases are possible, but they will
require the force sysupgrade option ( -F ).
Please backup your MR18's configuration before starting the
update. The reason here is that a lot of development happend
since AR71XX got removed, so I do advise to use the ( -n )
option for sysupgrade as well. This will cause the device
to drop the old AR71xx configuration and make a new
configurations from scratch.
Note on LEDs:
The LEDs has changed since AR71XX. The white LED is now used during
the boot and when upgrading instead of the green tricolor LED. The
technical reason is that currently the RGB-LED is brought up later
by a userspace daemon.
(added warning note about odm-caldata partition. remove initramfs -
it's too big to be built by the bots. MerakiNAND -> meraki-header.

Driver for both soc (2.4GHz Wifi) and pci (5 GHz) now pull the calibration
data from the nvmem subsystem.
This allows us to move the userspace caldata extraction for the pci-e ath9k
supported wifi into the device-tree definition of the device.
wmac's nodes are also changed over to use nvmem-cells over OpenWrt's
custom mtd-cal-data property.
The wifi mac address remains correct after these changes, because When both
"mac-address" and "calibration" are defined, the effective mac address
comes from the cell corresponding to "mac-address" and
mac-address-increment.
Test passed on my wndr3700v4 and wndr4500v3.

This patch adds support for the WNDR4300TN, marketed by Belgian ISP
Telenet. The hardware is the same as the WNDR4300 v1, without the
fifth ethernet port (WAN) and the USB port. The circuit board has
the traces, but the components are missing.

interface
+ Upload the Openwrt firmware: openwrt-ath79-nand-netgear_wndr4300tn-squashfs-factory.img
+ Proceed with the firmware installation and give the device a few
minutes to finish and reboot.
* Flashing through TFTP:
+ Configure your wired client with a static IP in the 192.168.1.x range,
e.g. 192.168.1.10 and netmask 255.255.255.0.
+ Power off the router.
+ Press and hold the RESET button (the factory reset button on the bottom
of the device, with the gray circle around it, next to the Telenet logo)
and turn the router on while keeping the button pressed.
+ The power LED will start flashing orange. You can release the button
once it switches to flashing green.

2.4 GHz Wifi on ath79 is set up in 10-ath9k-eeprom, but in ar71xx
it was done with ath79_register_wmac.
Thus, the following errors are observed on the device:
ath: phy1: Unable to initialize hardware; initialization status: -5
ath9k 18100000.wmac: failed to initialize device
ath9k: probe of 18100000.wmac failed with error -5
This patch changes the ath79 support to properly use wmac as well.
This will also require fixing the MAC address in a different way.

This patch introduces support for Netgear WNDR4500v3. Router
is very similar to WNDR4300v2 and is based on the same PCB.
Information gathered from various Internet sources (including
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/809227/) shows following
differences to WNDR4300v2:
* two USB 2.0 ports with separate LEDs
* USB LEDs soldered to secondary pads
* WPS and RFKILL buttons soldered to secondary pads
* described as N900 device with 3x3:3 MIMO for 2.4GHz radio
* power supply requirement is DC 12V 2.5A
* vendor HW ID suffix differs in one digit
* bigger chassis

Important Notes
===============
0. NOR Flash (2 MiB) is not touched by OpenWrt installation.
1. NAND Flash (128 MiB) layout under OpenWrt is changed as follows:
all space is split between 4 MiB kernel and 124 MiB UBI areas;
vendor partitions (language and mtdoops) are removed; kernel space
size can be further expanded if needed; maximum image size is set
to 25600k for compatibility reasons and can also be increased.
2. CPU clock is 775 MHz, not 750 MHz.
3. 5 GHz wireless radio chip is Atheros AR9580-AR1A with bogus PCI
device ID 0xabcd. For ath9k driver to load successfully, this is
overriden in DTS with correct value for this chip, 0x0033.
4. RFKILL button is wired to AR9580 pin 9 which is normally disabled
by chip definition in ath9k code (0x0000F4FF gpio mask). Therefore
'qca,gpio-mask=<0xf6ff>' hack must be used for button to work
properly.
5. USB port is always on, no GPIO for 5V power control has been
identified.
Installation
============
* TFTP recovery
* TFTP via U-boot prompt
* sysupgrade
* Web interface

Due to rebase of the base-files split patch after adding support
for the ZyXEL NBG6716, its base-files were added to the generic
subtarget, although the device belongs to the nand subtarget.
This moves the definitions to their proper locations.
