Only two minor changes is required to make our initramfs image flashable from stock web UI. This allows upgrades to OpenWrt without using console access.
In theory, the u-image magic could be different for the initramfs and the squashfs image, since it is not validated by u-boot and the stock web UI does not allow direct flashing of squasfs images. But this would be unnecessarily confusing. It would also prevent an installed OpenWrt squasfs image from being recognized by the stock flash management application. So this patchset uses the new mtdsplit_uimage configurability to allow the vendor specific magic used by stock images for these devices. These patches are only build tested for now. An earlier version has been thoroughly run tested with flashing from stock web UI. But my GS1900-10HP is currently in use for my path to the Internet, so testing on it is a bit inconvient. I am therefore leaning on other brave testers as usual...
