The ag71xx driver from Linux 5.4 currently has various shortcomings
when used with OpenWrt compared to our downstream version.
For example, the upstream driver does not support modifying the ethernet
clock and configuring RGMII delays on the MAC side.
While we should certainly switch to the upstream driver, the amount of
necessary patches would make it cumbersome to work with. It's also
highly likely we won't be able to finish patching the upstream driver in
time for a Linux 5.4 release.
Tested on Siemens WS-AP3610.

* Sync the patches with the changes done for kernel 4.19
* Use KERNEL_TESTING_PATCHVER
* Refresh the configuration
* Fix multiple compile bugs in the patches
* Only add own ag71xx files for kernel 4.19 and use upstream version for
5.4.

ethtool doesn't work currently as phy_ethtool_ioctl expects user space
pointer, but it's being passed kernel one. Fixing it doesn't make sense
as {s,g}et_settings were deprecated anyway. So let's rather remove
phy_ethtool_ioctl and use new {s,g}et_link_ksettings instead. While at
it, update nway_reset as well.

This target aims to replace ar71xx mid-term. The big part that is still
missing is making the MMIO/AHB wifi work using OF. NAND and mikrotik
subtargets will follow.
