Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: BCM63XX: handle huawei nvram layout
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Huawei uses a custom nvram layout, extending it with additional 32
byte field. This pushes also the checksum further, causing it to
always fail the check.

Add an additional crc check for handling this modified nvram layout
based on the different size.
