+commit 808fe9c2fa81a6b3e20fe813d5410e7fd6606efa

+
+ MIPS: BCM47XX: Remove CFE support
+
+ bcm47xx only uses the CFE code for early print to a console, but that
+ is also possible with a early print serial 8250 driver.
+
+ The CFE api init causes hangs somewhere in prom_init_cfe() on some
+ devices like the Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 and the Asus WL-520GU.
+ This was reported in https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/4061 and
+ https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=17063
+
+ This will remove all the CFE handling code from bcm47xx.
