Install
-------
1. Perform steps 1-14 of the OpenWrt installation guide (use OpenWrt
initramfs-recovery.itb instead of initramfs-kernel.bin at the step 10,
12 and 14). Link: https://openwrt.org/toh/mercusys/mr90x_v1#installation
2. Make backups:
```
cat /dev/mtd0 > /tmp/boot.bin
cat /dev/mtd5 > /tmp/tp_data.bin
```
Copy /tp_data dir content, /tmp/boot.bin and /tmp/tp_data.bin and to
your PC using scp. You can also backup the remaining partititons. Copy
backups to a safe place, they are required for the next steps and stock

3. Reboot to OpenWrt initramfs:
```

4. Copy OpenWrt ubi-bl31-uboot.fip, ubi-preloader.bin,
ubi-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb and MT7986_EEPROM.bin, default-mac (from
/tp_data backup) to the /tmp folder of the router using scp.
Recovery
--------
1. Place OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.itb image (with original name) on the

2. Press "reset" button and power on the router. After ~10 sec release the

3. Use OpenWrt initramfs system for recovery.
4. Erase UBI and reboot:
```

Also note that the qnap 301w has a 'rootfs_data' partition in the eMMC

This is why the partition is also ignored in the sysupgrade code and
there is no definition of CI_DATAPART="rootfs_data".
Since the start of the Realtek target OpenWrt works with RTL83XX as the
target architecture. Upstream is using MACH_REALTEK_RTL instead. To
simplify further development align that.
But there is no `libreadline.so` or `libhistory.so` available.
So this happens:

root@OpenWRT:~# cat a.c
int main() {
}
root@OpenWRT:~# gcc a.c -lreadline
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lreadline: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
```
Unless, of course, one uses `-l:libreadline.so.8`... But that
doesn't help with binaries that try to dynamically open
`libreadline.so`. I have one of those here (the STklos Scheme
compiler -- I didn't make a PR for it because it's far from
being ready, but one issue is that it does use dlopen to use
readline...)
Another example: when trying to package rlwrap, the build failed
complaining it could not find readline (using `-lreadline`).
It would then be necessary to change rlwrap's `configure.ac`
(and also in all packages that use readline), but it seems
simpler to add the symlinks...

This commit fixes and closes #16313.
Switch the x86 kernel's timer to tickless operation which is
more power efficient since it is not woken up by periodic timer
interrupts when idle. Also add several other options for CPU
idle governors particularly the upstream default for tickless
kernels, CONFIG_CPU_IDLE_GOV_MENU. Without this commit, my AMD
Ryzen 7 5800U can only achieve a minimum core frequency of 1,384
MHz which is over 3x higher than the processor's minimum
frequency of 400 MHz which is accessible with this modification.
In addition to the lower clock rate, I have seen a concomitant
reduction in both idle temps and at-the-wall power consumption.
Summary:
* Idle CPU freqs dropped from 1,384 MHz to 400 Mhz.
* Idle power consumption dropped from 7 W avg to 5 W.
* Idle temps have dropped from 50C on avg to 43C.
There are other well known reasons to switch to a tickless

resources, and reduced latency to name a few.
