Board name was specified incorrectly in the DT, fix.
This bug was introduced in #20580 (31f5fc8fea8931f5) which was
merged last week, and econet is still a mostly experimental target,
so it is considered unnecessary to update SUPPORTED_DEVICES.

Instead of using the name from /proc/cpuinfo, use board_name from
/lib/functions.sh

This device has one USB2.0 port, plus ethernet, 2x wifi, ethernet, xPON
and VoIP.
Installation instructions: (Assuming root shell via SSH or serial)
1. Place OpenWrt TRX file on a USB stick formatted VFAT
2. Plug in the stick to the modem
3. Type: mtd write -f -e tclinux /mnt/usb2_sda1/<name of file>.trx tclinux
At this point, both OpenWrt and the vendor OS will be installed
because the device has space for two operating systems. Switch the OS
to boot to OpenWrt:
1. mtd readflash tmpdata 999999999 0 reservearea
2. echo -n '0' | dd of=./tmpdata bs=1 count=1 seek=397311 conv=notrunc
3. mtd write -f -e reservearea ./tmpdata reservearea
4. reboot
WARNING: While you can install with SSH alone, you need serial to use
OpenWrt on EcoNet devices because the Ethernet driver has not yet been
developed.

The Nokia G-240G-E is an xPON device with an EN7526G, 256M of
memory and 128M of flash. It has 1 USB2 port as well as phone and
ethernet but no wifi. Flashing instructions are per the typical
process using xmodem in the bootloader. This and other things
are described here: https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/bt/g-240g-e_1
In addition, a generic image is offered, this image can be loaded
into memory from within the bootloader and launched directly. It
is recommended on the wiki of G-240G-E and other EcoNet devices
to be used for backing up the flash before flashing OpenWRT.

The SmartFiber XP8421-B is a fiber modem which is available for $20 online
and has 512MB of memory, 256MB of SPI NAND flash and 2 USB 2.0 ports in
addition to ethernet, wifi and XPON.
Because EcoNet is not currently producing evaluation boards, the XP8421-B
stands in as a convenient, low cost, off-the-shelf, representitive example
of the capabilities of the EN751221 econet processor. This is also the
example board that is included in the upstream Linux patchset.
The XP8421-B, and apparently many other devices of this platform, use a
dual-image layout. I have chosen to reuse this to support dual-boot between
OpenWRT and the factory firmware. Certain design decisions were made with
the goal of not overwriting data that is used by the factory OS.
This commit also introduces a utility for switching between OS_A and OS_B
which are used for OpenWRT and Factory OS respectively.
Flashing instructions (from bootloader):
Build and then locate the squashfs-tclinux.trx image file
Get the length of that file in hex: printf '%X\n' "$(stat -c%s the-file-squashfs-tclinux.trx)"
Connect to device with xmodem capability, e.g. picocom --send-cmd lsx -vv -b 115200 /dev/ttyUSB0
Switch device on and press a key within 3 seconds
Enter bootloader username and password: telecomadmin nE7jA%5m
Type: xmdm 80020000 <file length hex>
Quickly start xmodem and send the file, in picocom that is ctrl+a ctrl+s <paste-the-file-name> enter If the transfer fails to start, wait 30 seconds to a
minute for the bootloader prompt to return and then try the command again.
Once the transfer has completed successfully, type the following flash 80000 80020000 <file length hex>
Type go or simply restart the device to boot into OpenWRT
