Thank you Adrian for replying to my confusing mail.

Yes, I would like to introduce that 'DEFAULT := n' line in the device
definition.

As you wrote already, the change is easy, it's a oneliner.

I have problems with the commit description, as I can't write simply
"This device has a 1.5M kernel size limit during boot and is
unbootable since xxxxx.", like RP-WD02 disabling commit. [0]

I can't write, because it's not true: as I wrote in my previous mail,
one could flash and boot successfully the latest version of master
through serial.


Maybe I should try my luck and send this disabling patch.


On the long run, I would like improve support, but it won't be as
straightforward as it was in mt7620. But that's for another thread.
