Hi Daniel

There is a bit of a disconnect between OpenWRT and Mainline. They have
a lot of fixes that don't make it upstream. So it is good to see
somebody trying to fix mainline first, and then backport to
OpenWRT. But please do test mainline and confirm it is actually broken
before submitting patches.

When you do submit to OpenWRT, please make it clear this is an OpenWRT
problem so somebody does not try to push it to mainline again....

And if you have an itch to scratch, try adding mainline support for
this board. We can guide you.
