华为网卡支持linux,在openwrt下对华为WA633无线AP的千兆网卡驱动进行支持

1.下面是这款AP的全裸图，AP的无线网卡采用了AR9223，PHY采用了博通的BCM5461，主控CPU位octeon+ 500，射频功放采用的是RF5602方案。由于这款CPU并不常见，我至今未在网上找到它的datasheet，导致我们在玩这款AP的过程中遇到了很多困难。

2.Openwrt源码采用的最新的，B...b,内核是Linux-3.10.49

3.在内核里我们可以看到有支持BCM5461的驱动，但是我们选上了之后并不能直接用，因为这块板子上的PHY与CPU间通过MIDO和RGMI两种总线方式(可能描述有误，记不清了)进行数据交互。但是主控芯片上有多个同意的接口供外设使用，但是这块板子上只用了一个，我们必须去确定用的是那个口，然后在内核加载过程中做相应处理。

4.修改内核源码，创建一个新的patch,将所有的改动保存在patch中。

5.需要改的几个地方，改天贴图，还有内核里必选的几个配置项。
