* Add squashfs with LZ4 and LZO compression to Barebox
* Add squashfs with LZO compression to U-Boot
* Use "raw" as type for kernel partition which is compatible with ext4
image as well as squashfs.
Note: This does not use squashfs for the kernel but merly adds support
for it. This will allow to downgrade/fallback to the non-squashfs
version. Using squashfs for the kernel partition is implemented in dev
(for release 7).
* add eq3_char_loop package (eQ-3 char loopback kernel module)
* add generic_raw_uart package (low-latency raw UART kernel driver)
* add rpi-rf-mod package
* add device tree overlay support for RPI-RF-MOD/HM-MOD-RPI-PCB on Raspberry Pi
* enable GPIOLIB and GPIO_SYSFS required for RPI-RF-MOD/HM-MOD-RPI-PCB support.
* add basic RPI-RF-MOD/HM-MOD-RPI-PCB support for ASUS Tinker Board
* add device tree overlay support for ASUS Tinker Board and add
haos-config.txt loading support to U-Boot boot script
* Avoid trying to boot non-existing kernel image in fail-over case
The A/B update system automatically switches to the other boot slot when
booting fails. However, in a fresh installation, only boot slot A
exists. If booting fails three times (e.g. if somebody plugs out power
before the slot can be marked as good), then the system switches to boot
slot B which does not contain a kernel image yet. Avoid trying to boot
the non-existing kernel image.
With this change, if slot B is empty U-Boot will restore both slots to 3
attempts and retry booting from slot A on next reboot:
```
Trying to boot slot B, 2 attempts remaining. Loading kernel ...
** Unrecognized filesystem type **
No valid slot found, resetting tries to 3

* Fix Tinker Board S (eMMC) boot (#650)
Use Tinker Board S U-Boot configuration which is capable to boot from
eMMC as well as from SD card.
Note that this makes U-Boot always claiming to run on Tinker Board S:
..
Model: Rockchip RK3288 Asus Tinker Board S
..
It seems that there is no generic Tinker Board configuration. However,
Tinker Board S configuration really seems to work well with Tinker Board
as well, so just use it.
Also today the U-Boot Makefile seems to generate a working idbloader.img
already. Drop our special handling.
* Use Tinker Board S device tree if booting from eMMC for Linux
Instead of patching the Tinker Board device tree, select the device tree
based on what device we are booting from.
Note: This boots the non-S device tree when booting a Tinker Board S
from SD card! But there is no reliable detection otherwise, so let's
just live with that fact.
* Document how to use our U-Boot to flash eMMC
