arc: Build uImage as well as vmlinux output files
Initially for ARC we were building vmlinux images because it
was both simpler and more convenient to debug Linux kernel
in runt-time via JTAG. Now when base system works quite nice
we may finally use U-Boot for loading the system image as
well. Still we keep building vmlinux images as some of our
boards are development boards and loading images with JTAG
could be at some points very beneficial.
Note for U-Boot header it's required to specify 2 values:
* loading address
* entry point (if it doesn't match loading address)
and in case of ARC entry point (EP) not only differs from
loading address but also changes from build to build due to
initramfs being placed between loading address and text section.
To accommodate that feature we have to calculate EP after
vmlinux gets built and before call to mkimage.

mac80211: respect user-set regulatory domain by default
It turns out most device vendors don't set the correct country code
in their devices' on-flash-EEPROM sections as they apparently rather
provide a complete per-target-market firmware with patched drivers
instead of just setting the country code.
This results in the driver to incorrectly assume the value stored in
the on-flash-EERPOM (usually US or China) being the regulatory domain
inside which the device is being used.
To work around this issue, OpenWrt introduced the ATH_USER_REGD config
variable to decide during build whether or not to allow the user to
override the regulatory domain setting. This option, however, is not
enabled by default and thus ends up being disabled for snapshots builds
and released binaries.
As we know for a long time that most devices got borked regulatory
domain values set in their EEPROMs we should allow our users to respect
their local law (instead of just assume US or China laws).
Note that also the current default has great potential of users not
ever setting their regulatory domain and thus using inapproriate and
potentially illegal frequencies and/or tx-power settings

ath10k: support CT firmware choices.
This allows one to select CT firmware for ath10k
if one prefers to try this firmware instead of stock
ath10k firmware.
The 10.1 (988X) firmware can actually be installed beside the
default firmware, but it will not be used as long as the firmware-5.bin
file exists. Users could rename the files and reboot to use different
images.
The 99X0 (wave-2) firmware uses the same firmware-5.bin name as default
firmware, so it cannot be installed at the same time as default firmware.

This patch adds support for the Netgear EVG2000 VoIP Gateway to the
bcm63xx targets.
This device was not sold to the general public, but rather is/was
provided by telcos to customers in Sweden, Australia, Singapore and
other parts of asia.
Known issues:
- Unable to detect 53115 switch. This appear to be a problem with
probing for the PHY using MDIO and results in error 5. Doesn't seem to
be a problem with the configuration, and could use someone with
experience to have a look at it.
- Uses the b43 driver as using the OpenWRT/LEDE broadcom-wl driver
fails to load the firmware for the 4322, so 802.11n is not supported.

gettext-full: prevent using emacs
When the gettext-full host build phase finds an `emacs` exectuble during the
build it will launch an `emacs --batch` command to run some Lisp code.
On certain Debian systems the `/usr/bin/emacs` path might point, via
alternatives, to the `/usr/bin/jove` editor which will then launch an
interactive session when invoked by the gettext build.
In order to avoid this problem, explicitely disable emacs handling during
the build through a configure environment variable.
Also remove my now unreachable maintainer address.

2)Testing
Tested on IPQ AP148 Board:
a. NOR boot and NAND boot
b. ethernet network and ath10k wifi
c. ubi sysupgrade
UnTested
dwc3 usb has not been validated on IPQ board(AP148)
3)Known Issues:
Once we flash ubi image on AP148, and if we reset the board, uboot on
first boot creates PEB and LEB for dynamic sized partitions, which is incorrect
and not what linux expects which causes errors when trying to mount rootfs.
In order to test this, we can use the below steps:
a. Flash the ubi image on board and don't reset the board
b. load the kernel fit image in RAM and boot from there.

lantiq: VGV7510KW22 - fix pinmux configuration
The STP pinmux was initially added in assumption LAN2 led is driven by
it. It worked somehow because STP group and gphy0 led0 share the GPIO.
Do it the right way by adding the gphy0 led0 the gphy function.
According to the author, the SPI node is a copy & paste leftover. Which
makes sense since nothing is connected to the SPI bus on this device.
The default bootloader partition of some devices is to small for an
u-boot with uncompressed gphy firmware(s).
Instead of increasing the bootloader partition size, in compare to the
stock firmware, compress the firmware. This would allow the bootloader
of at least the FritzBox 3370 as well as the bootloader of the
VGV7510KW22 to fit into the bootloader partition of the stock firmware.
