mediatek: add a new spi-nand driver for kernel 5.10
This patch adds a new spi-nand driver which implements the SNFI of mt7622

Unlike the existing snfi driver which makes use of the spi-mem framework
and the spi-nand framework with modified ecc support, this driver is
implemented directly on the mtd framework with other components untouched,
and provides better performance, and behaves exactly the same as the nand
framework.

gpio-button-hotplug: convert to gpio descriptor (gpiod_) API
OpenWrt's special gpio-button-hotplug driver is still using
exclusively the legacy GPIO Subsystem gpio_ API.
While it still does work fine for most devices, upstream
linux is starting to convert platform support like that of
the APU2/3/4 to the new GPIOD LOOKUP tables that are not
supported by it.
Hence, this patch replaces the gpio_ calls present in
gpio-button-hotplug with gpiod_ equivalent wherever
it's possible. This allows the driver to use the
gpiod lookup tables and still have a fallback for
legacy platform data code that just sets button->gpio
set to the real button/switch GPIO.
As a bonus: the active_low logic is now being handled
by the linux's gpio subsystem too. Another issue that
was address is the of_handle leak in the dt parser
error path.

ath79: convert remaining mtd-mac-address cases to nvmem
Since the nvmem-based approach for retrieving MAC addresses
appears to depend on the addresses being set up after the
partitions, it is no longer possible to keep the MAC address
setup in shared DTSI files while the partitions itself are
set up in DTS files for the individual devices.
In ath79 the firmware partition is typically located somewhere
"in the middle" of the partition table. Thus, it's not trivial
to share the partitions containing MAC address information in
a common DTSI (like we did in some cases on ramips).
In this commit, MAC address setup is thus moved to the relevant
partitions, and in most cases needs to be duplicated. While
the duplication is not really nice, it eventually provides a
cleaner and more tidy setup, making the DTS(I) file
fragmentation a bit more logical. This should also help
with adding new devices, as information is distributed across
less locations.
For consistency, this commit also moves the mtd-cal-data property
"down" together with the MAC address setup, so it's not based
on a partition before the latter is defined either. (This is
only done for those files touched due to nvmem conversion.)
Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler <freifunk@adrianschmutzler.de>
ramips: convert most mtd-mac-address cases in DTSI to nvmem
Convert most of the cases from mtd-mac-address to nvmem where
MAC addresses are set in the DTSI, but the partitions are only
located in the device DTS. This posed some problems earlier, since
in these cases we are using partitions before they are defined,
and the nvmem system did not seem to like that.
There have been a few different resolution approaches, based on
the different tradeoffs of deduplication vs. maintainability:
1. In many cases, the partition tables were identical except for
the firmware partition size, and the firmware partition was
the last in the table.
In these cases, the partition table has been moved to the
DTSI, and only the firmware partition's "reg" property has
been kept in the DTS files. So, the updated nvmem definition
could stay in the DTSI files as well.
2. For all other cases, splitting up the partition table would
have introduced additional complexity. Thus, the nodes to be
converted to nvmem have been moved to the DTS files where the
partitioning was defined.
3. For Netgear EX2700 and WN3000RP v3, the remaining DTSI file
was completely dissolved, as it was quite small and the name
was not really nice either.
4. The D-Link DIR-853 A3 was converted to nvmem as well, though
it is just a plain DTS file not taken care of in the first
wave.
In addition, some minor rearrangements have been made for tidyness.

bcm27xx-userland: factor out a -dev package
Installing headers and static libraries to the target system seems
to be not required for most use cases, so let's factor them
out into a dedicated -dev package.
This cuts down to disk usage to around 50% of the original
package to ~ 2MB - not that disk space is an issue normally,
but when using inside an initramfs only project, it counts.

The mt76x8 subtarget is the only one in ramips that stores the
mediatek,mtd-eeprom property directly in the "root" mt7628an.dtsi.
This is not optimal for a few different reasons:
* If you don't really know it or are used to other (sub)targets,
the property will be set somewhat magically.
* The property is set based on &factory partition before (if at all)
this partition is defined.
* There are several devices that have different offset or even
different partitions to read from, which will then be overwritten
in the DTS files. Thus, definitions are scattered between root
DTSI and individual files.
Based on these circumstances, the "root" definition is removed and
the property is added to the device-based DTS(I) files where needed
and applicable. This should be easier to grasp for unexperienced
developers and will move the property closer to the partition
definitions.

base-files: rename 'sdcard' to 'legacy-sdcard'
While an image layout based on MBR and 'bootfs' partition may be easy
to understand for users who are very used to the IBM PC and always have
the option to access the SD card outside of the device (and hence don't
really depend on other recovery methods or dual-boot), in my opinion
it's a dead end for many desirable features on embedded systems,
especially when managed remotely (and hence without an easy option to
access the SD card using another device in case things go wrong, for
example).
Let me explain:
* using a MSDOS/VFAT filesystem to store kernel(s) is problematic, as a
single corruption of the bootfs can render the system into a state
that it no longer boots at all. This makes dual-boot useless, or at
least very tedious to setup with then 2 independent boot partitions
to avoid the single point of failure on a "hot" block (the FAT index
of the boot partition, written every time a file is changed in
bootfs). And well: most targets even store the bootloader environment
in a file in that very same FAT filesystem, hence it cannot be used
to script a reliable dual-boot method (as loading the environment
itself will already fail if the filesystem is corrupted).
* loading the kernel uImage from bootfs and using rootfs inside an
additional partition means the bootloader can only validate the
kernel -- if rootfs is broken or corrupted, this can lead to a reboot
loop, which is often a quite costly thing to happen in terms of
hardware lifetime.
* imitating MBR-boot behavior with a FAT-formatted bootfs partition
(like IBM PC in the 80s and 90s) is just one of many choices on
embedded targets. There are much better options with modern U-Boot
(which is what we use and build from source for all targets booting
off SD cards), see examples in mediatek/mt7622 and mediatek/mt7623.
Hence rename the 'sdcard' feature to 'legacy-sdcard', and prefix
functions with 'legacy_sdcard_' instead of 'sdcard_'.

procd: add missing dependency and fix empty mount triggers

Instead of triggering on every mount.add event, there should be no
mount trigger at all in case none of the directories passed to
