81ccd11347 gl-ar750: support _actual_ mtd/spi not just fake one
the ath9k driver needs MTD because that's where it looks for
firmware/calibration data (ART partition)

817c3793d4 move dts config from kernel to boot
The kernel does not need to know about the DTS. I am prepared
to be very slightly injured on this hill.

8cead61740 convert devices from overlay to module
this makes it possible for devices to stash things in
`config` (e.g. pathname to DTS) that can later be overwritten
(even by the end user)

f1b7780537 speed up kernel build
by having two separate derivations for patching the kernel source tree
and building it, we have to copy said source trees from one store
location to another which takes non-neglible time on spinning rust
(literally minutes on my machine). Replace with a single derivation
that can do more things on one tree in-place

77922c875b add per-device overlay
presently this is used to reference the appropriate kernel and (if
needed) openwrt source trees, but I would not be surprised if we find
other uses

e823e7a29c HALFARSED enable toggling promptless kconfig symbols
Some kernel config symbols we need to enable in some configurations
don't have a "prompt" entry in the Kconfig files, meaning that
make oldconfig (or any other make fooconfig) won't change them.
So we add a Kconfig.local where they can be selected

In this patch we hardcode the required symbol. Next step would be
to generalise so that they could be specified in something like a
config.kernel.hiddenConfig attrset

haven't even tried booting it but I don't expect it to work. Needs

- s6-linux-init or some other pid 1 program
- a kernel
