    mpc85xx: tl-wdr4900-v1: convert to mtdsplit image · 576c6993
    Pawel Dembicki authored
    
    Currently, the image creation process for the TP-Link tl-wdr4900-v1
    needs a fixed sized kernel and places the rootfs partition at a
    fixed offset. With the upcoming move to 4.19 the kernel will no
    longer fit into the existing allocated space for the kernel
    partition.
    
    This patch converts the device to utilize the established
    tplink,firmware mtdsplitter, which can deal with a dynamic
    kernel/rootfs size.
