Thanks for your patch, I've partially commited it in r42889
https://dev.openwrt.org/changeset/42889/

I still wonder how we could build firmwares for devices that need
noloader-nodictionary images. Your suggested call:
$(call Image/Build/$(SUBTARGET)/squashfs,initramfs)
will generate a standard (loader + dictionary) image for WNR3500L. The
same problem applies to the WNDR4500.

Should we add something like
Image/Build/mips74k/devices-with-64k-blocks-noloader-nodictionary
? And use some trick in it to use correct trx?
