ramips: add board alias for the ALL0239-3G
Generate image for the ALL0239-3G which can be flashed through the
chipset-vendor SDK based firmware's web-interface and bootloader.
The bootloader seems to ignore uImage checksum errors, but does complain about
them once the 0xDEADC0DE was replaced by an actual JFFS2 page.
I'm working on implementing fixtrx for uImage in the mtd package to solve this.

new package: rssileds daemon
rssileds is a small user-space process to control LEDs by polling the
signal quality reported by a WiFi interface. By using the iwinfo library,
rssileds is independent of the WiFi driver used.
It supports pwm controlled LEDs and may by used to nicely fade through
all colors in real-time of the rainbow while only wasting very little CPU
time and a small constant amount of system memory.
An example configuration for the ALL0258N will follow in the next patch.
This is a slightly improved version of rssileds, now quality values are
in percent and stuff is written to syslog.

netifd: call "wifi down" before "wifi up"
When the underlying /etc/config/wireless got changed since the last "wifi up"
has been performed, the uci vap ifname state vars become inconsistent on a
subsequent "wifi up" and multiple vaps get mapped to the same ifnames which
confuses the gui and other processes relying on them.
For now call an explicit "wifi down" prior to each "wifi up" which will clear
up the state accordingly.

Fix hard reset of alix/soekris hardware under heavy NIC load
The following patch corrects a hard reset that occurs on alix and
soekris net5501 hardware. Specifically, this is an issue with the via
rhine NIC driver. Under periods of extreme load, the via rhine driver
can cause a reset of the entire system. When this happens no output is
seen on the console, the device simply reboots. This was reported in the
following ticket:
Consistent crash on Soekris NET5501
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/11882
I was able to reproduce the problem locally with numerous alix 2d13
platforms. Under heavy 64 byte frame size load from a Smartbits traffic
generator, the alix hardware will hard reset in under 5 minutes. The
same hardware, under the same load, on FreeBSD 9.0 does not reset.
The patch below backports most of the via rhine changes from kernel 3.5.
With OpenWrt trunk being on kernel 3.3.8, it seemed prudent to bring
these changes in to avoid this serious issue.
I've tested this heavily in my test environment and was able to keep the
device stable under load for extended periods of time without any resets.
Also, a nice side effect of this change is that it significantly raises
the performance the platform. Without this patch the alix 2d13 can move
approximately 29,000 packets per second at 64 byte frame sizes. After
this patch the alix can move 52,000 packets per second at 64 byte frame
sizes.
I put this patch under the x86 patches as those are the only platforms
with via rhine hardware that I'm aware of. If it needs to go some place
else please let me know.
Thanks,
Adam
