[PATCH v4 01/14] ARM: mvebu: add Netgear RN102 support

Hello,

oh, it seems I have to work out again how to get access to the serial of
my RN104. Great there are some efforts for that machine.

@Luca, somewhat related, my RN104 runs Debian and since quite some time
I see issues in the network driver with overruns corrupting transfers.
Do you see these, too?

Apart from the different value, the latter name is the better one B-)

0xffff0000 is in line with
https://datasheet.datasheetarchive.com/originals/crawler/marvell.com/002fa441a27967d992f905776d519926.pdf
(page 630). So I'd expect that 0xffff0000 is correct, but I don't care
much.

Best regards
