ramips: mt7621: disable highmem support and remove highmem offset patch
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
On MT7621 it was observed, that enabling highmem support causes a significant
performance drop, as documented in: #13151
By adjusting the highmem start offset, we avoid leaving any RAM unaddressable,
even on devices with 512 MB

Fixes: #13151
