The DAP-X1860 is a wall-plug AX1800 repeater.

Specifications:
- MT7621, 256 MiB RAM, 128 MiB SPI NAND
- MT7915 + MT7975 2x2 802.11ax (DBDC)
- Ethernet: 1 port 10/100/1000
- LED RSSI bargraph (2x green, 1x red/green),
   incorrectly populated red/orange status LEDs
   (should be red/green according to documentation)

Installation:
- Keep reset button pressed during plug-in
- Web Recovery Updater is at 192.168.0.50
- Upload factory.bin, confirm flashing
   (seems to work best with Chromium-based browsers)

Revert to OEM firmware:
- tar -xvf DAP-X1860_RevA_Firmware_101b94.bin
- openssl enc -d -md md5 -aes-256-cbc -in FWImage.st2 \
   -out FWImage.st1 -k MB0dBx62oXJXDvt12lETWQ==
- tar -xvf FWImage.st1
- flash kernel_DAP-X1860.bin via Recovery

I am not quite happy with the 4096K fixed-size kernel partition,
but this is consistent with many other devices using UBI.
If one day the kernel image will grow larger, this could be addressed
simultaneously (e.g. using lzma-loader) for all devices.

Do we even need UBI when there is NMBM? But probably better for redundancy.

I see there are further options available for `mediatek,nmbm` in dts, i.e.
`bmt-max-ratio` and `bmt-remap-range`, only used by those two NMBM devices.
Do we need to set these as well, and how should the values be determined?

RSSI bargraph is configured for the 5GHz interface `wlan1` to be consistent
with other devices using the `rssileds` package, however in current master
this is no longer working, since individual interfaces (e.g. `phy1-sta0`)
will be created when connecting to a network. It seems this needs to be
resolved within `rssileds`, rather than individually for this device.

`uImage-relocate` is based on openwrt/staging/nbd from

Why do you need uImage-relocate and can not use the standard Build/uImage?
You have to set KERNEL_LOADADDR to  0x81000000.
