Between 4.19 and 5.4, mtd parsers have been moved to "parsers"
subdirectory. Based on this, the selection of myloader.o in OpenWrt
was also moved to that subdirectory, while the Kconfig and our local
myloader.c file remained in /drivers/mtd.
This resulted in linking errors like the following (on ath25@5.4):
make[8]: *** No rule to make target 'drivers/mtd/parsers/myloader.o', ...
needed by 'drivers/mtd/parsers/built-in.a'. Stop.
make[7]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:500: drivers/mtd/parsers] Error 2
make[6]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:500: drivers/mtd] Error 2
Since myloader.c is not too big, this patch moves it to the kernel patches,
allowing to adjust the path for kernel 5.4 and keeping Makefiles and
file paths better in sync.
Other patches have been refreshed accordingly.

This adds initial support for kernel 4.14 based on the patches for
kernel 4.9.
In the configuration I deactivated some of the new possible security
features like:
CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL
CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED
CONFIG_SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR
CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM
And these overlay FS options are also deactivated:
CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_INDEX
CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_REDIRECT_DIR
I activated this:
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE
CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS
CONFIG_SLAB_MERGE_DEFAULT
CONFIG_WATCHDOG_HANDLE_BOOT_ENABLED
I am not sure if I did the porting correct for the following patches:
target/linux/generic/backport-4.14/020-backport_netfilter_rtcache.patch
target/linux/generic/hack-4.14/220-gc_sections.patch
target/linux/generic/hack-4.14/321-powerpc_crtsavres_prereq.patch
target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/305-mips_module_reloc.patch
target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/611-netfilter_match_bypass_default_table.patch
target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/680-NET-skip-GRO-for-foreign-MAC-addresses.patch
