mediatek: simplify MaxLinear GPY PHY driver
The mxl-gpy driver apparently was built in the assumption that SGMII
auto-negotiation is always switched on at the MAC. This may be true for
few rather recent drivers (why?), but certainly isn't for most drivers
unless 'managed = "in-band-status"' is set in device tree. Add patch to
the mediatek target which reduces mxl-gpy to behave more like an
ordinary PHY driver using out-of-band status.
This allows to use these PHYs without rate-adaptation which seems to be
at least partially broken/racy in some revisions of the PHY and/or
internal PHY firmware.

Instead just add helper functions used by modern PCS drivers while keeping
the original functions instact as well. While this may add a kilobyte or

1. Use a PC to browse to http://my.keenetic.net.
2. Go to the System section and open the Files tab.

files. Click on the Firmware file.
4. When a modal window appears, click on the Choose File

5. Wait for the router to flash and reboot.
OEM installation using the TFTP method
1. Download the latest firmware image and rename it to
klite3_recovery.bin.
2. Set up a Tftp server on a PC (e.g. Tftpd32) and place the
firmware image to the root directory of the server.
3. Power off the router and use a twisted pair cable to connect
the PC to any of the router's LAN ports.

5. Power up the router while holding the reset button pressed.
6. Wait approximately for 5 seconds and then release the

complete flashing in a few minutes.
After flashing is complete, use the PC to browse to

ath79: Add Aruba AP-175 support
This board is very similar to the Aruba AP-105, but is
outdoor-first. It is very similar to the MSR2000 (though certain
MSR2000 models have a different PHY[^1]).
A U-Boot replacement is required to install OpenWrt on these
devices[^2].
Specifications
--------------
* Device: Aruba AP-175
* SoC: Atheros AR7161 680 MHz MIPS
* RAM: 128MB - 2x Mira P3S12D40ETP
* Flash: 16MB MXIC MX25L12845EMI-10G (SPI-NOR)
* WiFi: 2 x DNMA-H92 Atheros AR9220-AC1A 802.11abgn
* ETH: IC+ IP1001 Gigabit + PoE PHY
* LED: 2x int., plus 12 ext. on TCA6416 GPIO expander
* Console: CP210X linking USB-A Port to CPU console @ 115200
* RTC: DS1374C, with internal battery
* Temp: LM75 temperature sensor
Factory installation:
- Needs a u-boot replacement. The process is almost identical to that
of the AP105, except that the case is easier to open, and that you
need to compile u-boot from a slightly different branch:
https://github.com/Hurricos/u-boot-ap105/tree/ap175
The instructions for performing an in-circuit reflash with an
SPI-Flasher like a CH314A can be found on the OpenWrt Wiki
(https://openwrt.org/toh/aruba/ap-105); in addition a detailed guide
may be found on YouTube[^3].
- Once u-boot has been replaced, a USB-A-to-A cable may be used to
connect your PC to the CP210X inside the AP at 115200 baud; at this
point, the normal u-boot serial flashing procedure will work (set up
networking; tftpboot and boot an OpenWrt initramfs; sysupgrade to
OpenWrt proper.)
- There is no built-in functionality to revert back to stock firmware,
because the AP-175 has been declared by the vendor[^4] end-of-life
as of 31 Jul 2020. If for some reason you wish to return to stock
firmware, take a backup of the 16MiB flash before flashing u-boot.

- Fast Ethernet ports on ZF7363 and ZF7343 are supported, but management
features of the RTL8363S switch aren't implemented yet, though the
switch is visible over MDIO0 bus. This is a gigabit-capable switch, so
link establishment with a gigabit link partner may take a longer time
because RTL8363S advertises gigabit, and the port magnetics don't
support it, so a downshift needs to occur. Both ports are accessible
at eth1 interface, which - strangely - runs only at 100Mbps itself.
- Flash layout is changed from the factory, to use both firmware image
partitions for storage using mtd-concat, and uImage format is used to
actually boot the system, which rules out the dual-boot capability.
- Both radio has its own EEPROM on board, not connected to CPU.
- The stock firmware has dual-boot capability, which is not supported in

It is controlled by data in the top 64kB of RAM which is unmapped,
to avoid the interference in the boot process and accidental

BCM53124S switch.
This device is already supported in bcm63xx target, so more information can be
found in https://openwrt.org/toh/huawei/hg253s_v2.
It's a perfect example of a device with internal and external switch
coexistance since most devices only have ports on one of the switches but not
both of them.
Without this change, internal and external B53 switches couldn't coexist as
reported in https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/10313.
In order to fix this we need to force the B53 MMAP DSA switch driver to use
bcm6368-mdio-mux for accessing the PHY registers instead of its own phy_read()
and phy_write() functions.

treewide: add support for "lto" in PKG_BUILD_FLAGS
This reduces open coding and allows to easily add a knob to enable
it treewide, where chosen packages can still opt-out via "no-lto".
Some packages used LTO, but not the linker plugin. This unifies 'em
all to attempt to produce better code.
Quoting man gcc(1):
"This improves the quality of optimization by exposing more code to the
link-time optimizer."
Also use -flto=auto instead of -flto=jobserver, as it's not guaranteed
that every buildsystem uses +$(MAKE) correctly.

treewide: add support for "gc-sections" in PKG_BUILD_FLAGS
This reduces open coding and allows to easily add a knob to
enable it treewide, where chosen packages can still opt-out via
"no-gc-sections".
Note: libnl, mbedtls and opkg only used the CFLAGS part without the
LDFLAGS counterpart. That doesn't help at all if the goal is to produce
smaller binaries. I consider that an accident, and this fixes it.
Note: there are also packages using only the LDFLAGS part. I didn't
touch those, as gc might have been disabled via CFLAGS intentionally.

build: introduce PKG_BUILD_FLAGS and move PKG_IREMAP to it
PKG_BUILD_FLAGS is a new variable for package Makefiles similar to
PKG_FLAGS. It's a whitespace separated list of flags to control various
aspects of how a package is build.
The build system and/or .config defines the default for each, but
every package has the means to override it. Using $flagname enables
a flag, no-$flagname disables it.
Start with PKG_IREMAP as "iremap". That's easy as no package here
nor in any package feed uses it. The default is unchanged: enabled.
Packages can opt-out via:
PKG_BUILD_FLAGS:=no-iremap
(Not that any should, just to illustrate how to use it)

Cases have been reported in which certain devices do not boot correctly
or have errors. After various tests by users who have such errors it has
been concluded that the SPI frequency should be reduced to 40Mhz, at
this speed it appears that all devices work correctly.
