Added:
   
trunk/target/linux/generic/patches-3.14/490-mtd-ubi-add-EOF-marker-support.patch
Log:
kernel: add the ubifs EOF marker support to 3.14 kernel

Without this patch the UBIFS driver is unable to attach to the mtd
storage and mount the root FS.

Fixes a kernel panic with Netgear WNDR4300/3700v4 devices.
