The external switch of the Huawei HG556a is a BCM5325E connected by MDIO.
All the DSA brcm legacy FCS tag and b53 patches have been submitted upstream
and will be backported when accepted.
There are still some sporadic FDB errors, but at least the switch is working
and stable on my device:
bcm53xx fffe4800.ethernet-mii:1e: port 0 failed to add 72:31:59:xx:xx:xx vid 1 to fdb: -28
bcm53xx fffe4800.ethernet-mii:1e: port 0 failed to add 5c:4c:a9:xx:xx:xx vid 0 to fdb: -28
bcm53xx fffe4800.ethernet-mii:1e: port 0 failed to add 5c:4c:a9:xx:xx:xx vid 1 to fdb: -28
bcm53xx fffe4800.ethernet-mii:1e: port 0 failed to delete 72:31:59:xx:xx:xx vid 1 from fdb: -2

bmips has all the dt-bindings includes inside each SoC .dtsi files, so let's
move the new includes there instead of adding them to each board .dts files.

Initial conversion to new LED color/function format
and drop label format where possible. The same label
is composed at runtime.

Align all the device tree files and follow the same criteria before more
devices are ported from bcm63xx and this goes out of control.

There's no need to poll the gpio keys every 20 ms and the linux kernel
documentation suggests 100 ms.

We should ensure that the PHY is properly configured.
This is specially needed in devices using the internal PHY for ethernet0.

The MDIO bus is supported but there are errors when trying to probe and
configure the external BCM5325E switch through B53 DSA.
Therefore, let's add basic ethernet (but working) support for now.

Define nvmem-cells and convert mtd-mac-address to nvmem implementation.
The conversion is done with an automated script.

These PCI drivers are a bit hacky and definitely not suitable for upstreaming,
but hopefully we can use them as a base for developing proper upstream PCI
drivers.

Introduce new patch for automatically detecting RAM size.
Some boards have a different amount of RAM depending on the HW revision.
Therefore, automatically detecting the RAM size instead of hard-coding it will
reduce the number of device definitions.

This target has full device tree support, thus reducing the number of
patches needed for bcm63xx, in which there's a patch for every board.
The intention is to start with a minimal amount of downstream patches and
start upstreaming all of them.
Current status:
- Enabling EHCI/OHCI on BCM6358 causes a kernel panic.
- BCM63268 lacks Timer Clocks/Reset support.
- No PCI/PCIe drivers.
- No ethernet drivers.
