* ath79: use downstream ag71xx for Kernel 5.4David Bauer2020-03-131-0/+28
The ag71xx driver from Linux 5.4 currently has various shortcomings when used with OpenWrt compared to our downstream version. For example, the upstream driver does not support modifying the ethernet clock and configuring RGMII delays on the MAC side. While we should certainly switch to the upstream driver, the amount of necessary patches would make it cumbersome to work with. It's also highly likely we won't be able to finish patching the upstream driver in time for a Linux 5.4 release. Tested on Siemens WS-AP3610.
