[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH] [ar71xx] stops qihoo 360 c301 booting into backup firmware

[swigger]

Openwrt recently adds Qihoo [NYSE:QIHU] C301 router support.
However, this router has a backup firmware in the second flash and the
current trunk can only boot 3 times before u-boot boots into that backup
firmware. This is a stratgy for unbricking. 

This patch makes u-boot happy.
