    ath79: use dynamic partitioning for TP-Link CPE series
    
    CPExxx and WBSxxx boards with AR9344 SOC
    use the OKLI lzma kernel loader
    with the offset of 3 blocks of length 4k (0x3000)
    in order to have a fake "kernel" that cannot grow larger
    than how it is defined in the now static OEM partition table.
    
    Before recent changes to the mtdsplit driver,
    the uImage parser for OKLI only supported images
    that started exactly on an eraseblock boundary.
    
    The mtdsplit parser for uImage now supports identifying images
    with any magic number value
    and at any offset from the eraseblock boundary
    using DTS properties to define those values.
    
    So, it is no longer necessary to use fixed sizes
    for kernel and rootfs
