This driver exposes the data encoded in the "soft_config" flash segment
of MikroTik RouterBOARDs devices. It presents the data in a sysfs folder
named "soft_config" through a set of human-and-machine-parseable
attributes. Changes can be discarded by writing 0 to the 'commit'
attribute, or they can be committed to flash storage by writing 1.
This driver does not reuse any of the existing code previously found in
the "rbcfg" utility and makes this utility obsolete by providing a clean
sysfs interface.
Like "rbcfg", this driver requires 4K_SECTORS support since the flash
partition in which these parameters are stored is typically 4KB in size.

The depends and select should apply to the sysfs driver, not the meta
config.

This driver exposes the data encoded in the "hard_config" flash segment
of MikroTik RouterBOARDs devices. It presents the data in a sysfs folder
named "hard_config". The WLAN calibration data is available on demand via
the 'wlan_data' sysfs file in that folder.
This driver permanently allocates a chunk of RAM as large as the
"hard_config" MTD partition (typically 4KB), although it is technically
possible to operate entirely from the MTD device without using a local
buffer (except when requesting WLAN calibration data), at the cost of a
performance penalty.
This driver does not reuse any of the existing code previously found in
routerboot.c.
This driver has been successfully tested on BE (ath79) and LE (ipq40xx
and ramips) hardware.
