Hm I tested mostly the rootfs and that the kernel would get to prompt.
But for my D-Link devices I tested mostly with kernel v4.16 because
I'm working close to mainline. Testing now it seems network is not
coming up here either :/ as it works like a charm on v4.16 it must
be some minor issue.

I would guess Hans Ulli Kroll can help with USB, I just applied the
patches and have nothing to test it with. I never used USB...

The v4.16 stack is pretty small and there the network for sure
works (not a finished patch set):

If it's hard to get v4.14 to backport we could maybe aim to
use v4.16 instead? Or is there some OpenWRT baselining involved?

Yours,
Linus Walleij
