9814fb272f mips: mt76xx: Implement new d-cache fix in last_stage_init()
With commit 06985289d4 ("watchdog: Implement generic watchdog_reset()
version") the init sequence has changed in arch_misc_init(), resulting
in a re-appearance of the d-cache issue on MT7688 boards (e.g. gardena).
When this happens, the first (or sometimes later ones as well) TFTP
command hangs and does not complete correctly. This leads to the
assumption that the d-cache is not in a clean state once the ethernet
driver is called (d-cache is used here for the buffers). The old work-
around with the cache flush somehow does not work any more now with
the new code change.

Unfortunately adding CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_CLEAR_ON_INIT also did not fix
this issue. With v2019.07-rc3 it shows again. The time of accessing
the data seems to be very important here. It needs to be "very late"
in the boot process.

Testing has shown, that copying a 64KiB area in DDR at a very late
bootup time, directly before calling into the prompt, fixes this issue.
Flushing of the complete d-cache does not seem to necessary, as this
copy alone seems to fix this problem.

f913eab9b9 mips: mt76xx: Remove cache workaround and select SYS_MALLOC_CLEAR_ON_INIT
With commit 06985289d4 ("watchdog: Implement generic watchdog_reset()
version") the init sequence has changed in arch_misc_init(), resulting
in a re-appearance of the d-cache issue on MT7688 boards (e.g. gardena).
When this happens, the first (or sometimes later ones as well) TFTP
command hangs and does not complete correctly. This leads to the
assumption that the d-cache is not in a clean state once the ethernet
driver is called (d-cache is used here for the buffers). The old work-
around with the cache flush somehow does not work any more now with
the new code change.

To fix this issue, this patch now removes the old workaround and selects
CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_CLEAR_ON_INIT for ARCH_MTMIPS. With this option the
complete malloc area is initialized with zeros (cache lines are touched).
Testing has shown that this also fixes the issue on the MT7688 boards.

16b94903e2 mips: rename mach-mt7620 to mach-mtmips
Currently mach-mt7620 contains only support for mt7628. To avoid confusion,
rename mach-mt7620 to mach-mtmips, which means MediaTek MIPS platforms.
MT7620 and MT7628 should be distinguished by SOC_MT7620 and SOC_MT7628
because they do not share the same lowlevel codes.

Dependencies of four drivers are changed to SOC_MT7628 as these drivers
are only used by MT7628.
