arc770: bump linux kernel from 4.3 to 4.4

This switch involved:
 [1] Regeneration of config (few options went away)
 [2] Regeneration of patches so they apply cleanly (different offsets)
 [3] Update of .dts files because we now explicitly specify
     memory regions in use as opposed to previously used offset
     from 0x8000_0000

+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] openwrt: arc - remove dependency on DEVTMPFS
+
+OpenWRT builds initramfs so that it doesn't require DEVTMPFS so dropping
+this dependency. That helps to escape 2 separate kernel rebuilds with
+and without initramfs.
+
+2 builds happen because OpenWRT first builds kernel and later modules.
+When building entire kernel with simple "make" INITRAMFS sets to a real
+value and so was triggering DEVTMPFS selection. Then when building only
+modules with "make modules" command INITRAMFS is zeroed and so kernel
+config was changing that lead to full kernel rebuild.

+Subject: [PATCH 2/2] openwrt: arc - add OWRTDTB section
+
+This change allows OpenWRT to patch resulting kernel binary with
+external .dtb.
+
+That allows us to re-use exactky the same vmlinux on different boards
+given its ARC core configurations match (at least cache line sizes etc).
+
+""patch-dtb" searches for ASCII "OWRTDTB:" strign and copies external
+.dtb right after it, keeping the string in place.
