Revert "mvebu: remove linux 4.4 support"
This reverts commit 51397d7d95d9f5e210a5557f65de1fa21e6f5921. There are some unresolved random crashes on WRT1900AC v1 that still need to be sorted out Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>

+Subject: [PATCH] net: add a hardware buffer management helper API
+
+This basic implementation allows to share code between driver using
+hardware buffer management. As the code is hardware agnostic, there is
+few helpers, most of the optimization brought by the an HW BM has to be
+done at driver level.
