6f96a4d043 ath79: remove model name from LED labels
Currently, we request LED labels in OpenWrt to follow the scheme

  modelname:color:function

However, specifying the modelname at the beginning is actually
entirely useless for the devices we support in OpenWrt. On the
contrary, having this part actually introduces inconvenience in
several aspects:

  - We need to ensure/check consistency with the DTS compatible
  - We have various exceptions where not the model name is used,
    but the vendor name (like tp-link), which is hard to track
    and justify even for core-developers
  - Having model-based components will not allow to share
    identical LED definitions in DTSI files
  - The inconsistency in what's used for the model part complicates
    several scripts, e.g. board.d/01_leds or LED migrations from
    ar71xx where this was even more messy

Apart from our needs, upstream has deprecated the label property
entirely and introduced new properties to specify color and
function properties separately. However, the implementation does
not appear to be ready and probably won't become ready and/or
match our requirements in the foreseeable future.

However, the limitation of generic LEDs to color and function
properties follows the same idea pointed out above. Generic LEDs
will get names like "green:status" or "red:indicator" then, and
if a "devicename" is prepended, it will be the one of an internal
device, like "phy1:amber:status".

With this patch, we move into the same direction, and just drop
the boardname from the LED labels. This allows to consolidate
a few definitions in DTSI files (will be much more on ramips),
and to drop a few migrations compared to ar71xx that just changed
the boardname. But mainly, it will liberate us from a completely
useless subject to take care of for device support review and
maintenance.
To also drop the boardname from existing configurations, a simple
migration routine is added unconditionally.

Although this seems unfamiliar at first look, a quick check in kernel
for the arm/arm64 dts files revealed that while 1033 lines have
labels with three parts *:*:*, still 284 actually use a two-part
labelling *:*, and thus is also acceptable and not even rare there.

231dc26867 treewide: remove dts-v1 identifier from DTSI files
The "/dts-v1/;" identifier is supposed to be put once at the beginning
of a device tree file. Thus, it makes no sense to provide it a second
time in to-be-included DTSI files.

This removes the identifier from all DTSI files in /target/linux.

Most of the DTS files in OpenWrt do contain the "/dts-v1/;". It is
missing for most of the following targets, though:
mvebu, ipq806x, mpc85xx, ipq40xx

This does not touch ipq806x for now, as the bump to 4.19 is close.

f4026ad24d ath79: DTS file style update and harmonization
This applies several style adjustments that have been requested in
recent reviews to older DTS files. Despite making the code base more
consistent, this will also help to reduce review time when DTSes
are copy/pasted.

Applied changes:
- Rename gpio-keys/gpio-leds to keys/leds
- Remove node labels that are not used
- Use label property for partitions
- Prefix led node labels with "led_"
- Remove redundant includes
- Harmonize new lines after status property
- Several smaller style fixes

8b76c6695b ath79: add support for TP-Link TL-WR841N/ND v12
This router has the same hardware as TP-LINK TL-WR841N/ND v11 (same
FCC ID, same TFTP image name...).

Flash instruction (WebUI):
Download *-factory.bin image and upload it via the firmwary upgrade
function of the stock firmware WebUI.

Flash instruction (TFTP):
1. Set PC to fixed ip address 192.168.0.66
2. Download *-factory.bin image and rename it to wr841nv11_tp_recovery.bin
   (it's really v11, not v12)
3. Start a tftp server with the image file in its root directory
4. Turn off the router
5. Press and hold Reset button
6. Turn on router with the reset button pressed and wait ~15 seconds
7. Release the reset button and after a short time
the firmware should be transferred from the tftp server
8. Wait ~30 second to complete recovery.
