[LEDE-DEV] [PATCH 0/3] mvebu: add kernel 4.14 support

[Hauke Mehrtens]

This add support for kernel 4.14 to the mvebu target. My main reason to 
add kernel 4.14 support is to make it easier to also add support for the 
Marvell Armada 3700LP ARM64 SoCs especially the ESPRESSObin board. 

I do not have any of the currently supported boards so I can not runtime 
test this myself, Lucian Cristian already tested this on one of his 
boards and he still has the following problems:
1. The ubifs is created with format version 5 which can not be read by 
kernel 4.9. This causes problems when doing a sysupgrade from kernel 
4.14 to kernel 4.9, I already send a mail to the mailing list about this 
problem. 
2. The PCIe controller device tree names changed from /soc/pcie-
controller/ to /soc/pcie/ which makes OpenWrt add an new entry for the 
wifi cards on these PCIe controllers. The new name is consistent with 
what is used in the mainline kernel and I would like to stay with the 
new names and migration could be done but I do not know how.

My current working tree for this target can be found here:
https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/staging/hauke.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/mvebu-4.14
This tree also contains the code needed for the ESPRESSObin, but we 
still have some problems with the image creation, the bootloader boots 
by default the kernel + dtb from a ext4 file system on a SD card and 
also uses this partition as root file system.

I am waiting for positive and negative feedback on these patches, if you 
run into a problem which you do not have with kernel 4.9 please report 
this.

Hauke Mehrtens (3):
  mvebu: move files to files-4.9 and files-4.4 folder
  mvebu: copy config and patches from 4.9 to 4.14
  mvebu: Make kernel 4.14 patches apply
