brcm2708: rename all patches from raspberrypi git tree to use 950 prefix
Right now all brcm2708 patches are extracted from the non-mainline raspberrypi/linux git tree. Many of them are hacks and/or are unneeded in LEDE. Raspberry Pi is getting better and better mainline support so it would be nice to finally start maintaining patches in a cleaner way: 1) Backport patches accepted in upstream tree 2) Start using upstream drivers 3) Pick only these patches that are needed for more complete support Handling above tasks requires grouping patches - ideally using the same prefixes as generic ones. It means we should rename existing patches to use some high prefix. This will allow e.g. use 0xx for backported code.

+Subject: [PATCH] amba_pl011: Don't use DT aliases for numbering
+
+The pl011 driver looks for DT aliases of the form "serial<n>",
+and if found uses <n> as the device ID. This can cause
+/dev/ttyAMA0 to become /dev/ttyAMA1, which is confusing if the
+other serial port is provided by the 8250 driver which doesn't
+use the same logic.
