In ath79, for several SoCs the console bootargs are defined to the
very same value in every device's DTS. Consolidate these definitions
in the SoC dtsi files and drop further redundant definitions elsewhere.
The only device without any bootargs set has been OpenMesh OM5P-AC V2.
This will now inherit the setting from qca955x.dtsi
Note that while this tidies up master a lot, it might develop into a
frequent pitfall for backports.

Specification:
- SoC: Qualcomm Atheros QCA9533 (560 MHz, MIPS 24Kc)
- RAM: 32 MiB
- Storage: 4 MiB of Flash on board
- Wireless: Built into QCA9533 (Honey Bee), PHY modes b/g/n
- Ethernet: 1x100M (port0)
Installation through OEM Web Interface:
- Connect to TL-WR802N by Ethernet or Wi-Fi
- Go to web interface:
[V1] http://192.168.0.1
[V2] http://192.168.0.254
Default user is "admin" & password is "admin".
On V2, there is no DHCP server running by default, so remember to set
IP manually.
- Go to "System Tools -> Firmware Upgrade"
- Browse for firmware:
[V1] "*.factory.bin"
[V2] "*.factory-us.bin" or "*.factory-eu.bin" for eu model
Web interface may complain if filename is too long. In such case,
rename .bin to something shorter.
- Click upgrade
Installation through tftp:
Note: T_OUT, T_IN and GND on the board must be connected to USB TTL
Serial Configuration 115200 8n1
- Boot the TL-WR802N
- When "Autobooting in 1 seconds" appears type "tpl" followed by enter
- Connect to the board Ethernet port
(IPADDR: 192.168.1.1, ServerIP: 192.168.1.10)
- tftpboot 0x80000000 <Firmware Image Name>
- Record the result of "printenv bootcmd"
- Enter "erase <Result of 'printenv bootcmd'> +0x3c0000"
(e.g erase 0x9f020000 +0x3c0000)
- Enter "cp.b 0x80000000 <Result of 'printenv bootcmd'> 0x3c0000"
(e.g cp.b 0x80000000 0x9f020000 0x3c0000)
- Enter "bootm <Result of 'printenv bootcmd'>"
(e.g bootm 0x9f020000)
Notes:
When porting from ar71xx target to ath79, I found out that on V2,
reset button is on GPIO12 and active low, instead of GPIO11 and
active high. By cross-flashing V1 firmware to V2, I confirmed
the same is true for V1.
Also according to manual of V1, this one also has green
LED instead of blue - both of those issues were fixed accordingly.
The MAC address assignment has been checked with OEM firmware.
