With a backported patch from the OpenWrt trunk, it is now easy to generate an
equivalent configuration using CONFIG_ALL_KMODS.
The build will take a bit longer because all kernel module packages are actually
built even when they are not included in the image, but adding new targets
becomes a lot easier.
Also, related documentation updates and fixes.
Built, flashed and successully tested. This patch takes advantage of patch freifunk-gluon@e93173c which solved issue freifunk-gluon#226 by introducing "GluonProfileFactorySuffix". Packages are separated by a space, not a comma. The ALL0315N initially has a OpenWRT based firmware and there is no need for a factory image. The sysupgrade can be flashed instantly.
This still needs some work:
- there's no factory image causing `make images` to fail
- VoCore can not support BSS and IBSS at the same time
- multi-BSS mode (e.g. mesh + BSS) works if the macs only
differ in the last 3 bits. Gluon expects to choose both MACs freely,
though, so after flashing the image one should reset the wifi MACs.
This is further complicated as VoCores have their MACs assigned
without gaps making collisions likely.
- there are no buttons nor ethernet ports (without the dock, that is),
so config-mode will not be possible as is

whether the MAC address seen by Gluon is the one printed on the device
yes

I have this little gadget. I've build gluon for this target and it seems that everything works well. Using this thing in the Stuttgart community (currently testing gluon).
