Hi all,

Here is my second attempt for initial FritzBox x490 support. 22.03 now
has all the necessary prerequisites, so support can be added according
to the rules.

The original code snippets were submitted by John Crispin (IIRC),
Andreas Böhler and Daniel Kestrel. I carved out the changes I
considered necessary, integrated and tested them and cleaned them up
(hopefully ;)

These are the minimal changes required to run the FB {3,7}490 as DSL
router (tested!). The 5490 is reported to be similar, so I included
it, but could not test it due to lack of hardware.

The wireless on these boxes is offloaded to a secondary SoC which
needs to be provided its own OS. This feature is explicitly left out
here in order to go step by step. I kept some loose ends where they
don't hurt, for future reference.

Changes from v1:
----------------

* return to squashfs for the rootfs; ubifs causes too much complexity
   esp. for updates, when even the same model can be equipped with
   varying flash chip geometries. UBI partitioning and volumes are kept
   though.

Hi,

How is this related to the pull request adding support for these devices on github?
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/5075

The pull request on github looks mostly ok to me, I just had some minor questions.

Hauke
