Provide support for the Seeed LinkStar H68K-1432v1, previously
unsupported in mainline Linux kernel. It is a compact single board
travel router with the following features:

  - Rockchip rk3568 SoC;
  - Four Gib RAM;
  - Four ethernet ports:
    -  Two 1 GigE ports;
    -  Two 2.5 GigE ports (RTL8125);
    
  - Ethernet ports support Precision Time Protocol (PTP IEEE 1588);
  
  - Four USB ports:
    - Three USB 3.0 ports;
    - Two USB 2.0 ports;
    
  - Integrated WiFi:
    - MediaTek MT7921e
    
  - Audio and video outputs:
    - HDMI;
    - Headphone;
    
  - eMMC (32 Gib) and microSD storage;
  - Real-time clock (rk809)
  - Powered by:
    - USB Type-C;
    - Barrel connector (DC 12-24v);
    
These patches:
  - Create a devicetree for the board;
  - Add a (dtb) Makefile entry for the board;
  - Add the board to dt-bindings;
