Hi Bjorn,

You are right that the bootloader must be fixed.  But the vendor isn't
likely to do that as long as they run older kernels. I believe the
OpenWrt policy in such cases is to try to work around the issue.
Replacing the vendor bootloader is a last resort.  Please correct me if
I'm wrong.

I haven't tried this yet, but I think we should be able to boot a FIT
image configuration which only contains a kernel image. We could then simply
use the legacy append-DT like we do for legacy uImage ramips.

Not the nicest way, but considering we need it for the target anyways, i 
consider
this the simpler solution.

Note however, that this has to be at least also applied to the ZyXEL NWAxxx and 
(i assume)
all other FIT ramips boards.

Best
