Hi Kevin,

You=E2=80=99re right. The reason I left serial0 set to uart2 was that =
the LinkIt Smart 7688 board I have uses uart2 as console and I don=E2=80=99=
t have any other MT7628/MT7688 boards to test with.

This, however, brings me to another issue - the OpenWRT DTS files we use =
do not specify the actual console in any FreeBSD supported way (hence =
the need to specify serial0 alias in the fbsd dtsi files), so setting =
serial0 to uartlite for all MT7628/MT7688 boards will break at least the =
LinkIt Smart 7688 console=E2=80=A6
Probably the best way forward would be to talk to the OpenWRT guys and =
see if they would be willing to include serial0 aliases in their DTS =
files directly, so I can then import these and trim our fbsd dtsi files =
further=E2=80=A6 but I won=E2=80=99t have time to work on this until at =
least the week after next.

In any case, thanks for testing this out and thanks for the patch. If =
you have other Mediatek/Ralink boards you could test with I would really =
appreciate it.

Best wishes,
Stanislav
