I took the text from https://www.openssl.org/

I changed the description because the old one was mentioning SSLv2, which
is no longer supported.

Basically just one, which defines custom compilation flags for the
different architectures supported by OpenWrt.

In this RFC I had added a second patch to fix build on aarch64, but it
already made it upstream (in 1.1.0g, while this RFC is based 1.1.0f).

By the way, did you have a look at dependent packages that fail to build?
I remember there was at least wget.
