FS#3482 - WNDR3700 - config changes do not survive reboot after 'Perform Reset'

[openwrt-bot]

_lsx:

Issue occurs on WNDR3700 v1
Image used openwrt-19.07.4-ath79-generic-netgear_wndr3700-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

Steps:

1, Flash the above sysupgrade image.
2, Configure luci as required, all settings are saved as expected and survive any number of reboots as expected.
3, Use luci System/Backup Flash Firmware/Reset to Defaults (Perform Reset) to clear the current configuration.
4, Post reset any changes applied to config/settings within luci no longer survive a reboot. The luci configuration returns to the default post-flash position after each reboot.

Issue is reproducible.

Workaround is to reflash and avoid using the reset functionality.

Sorry for the task title, hopefully it gives someone a laugh.

Title should really be config changes do not survive reboots after using 'Perform Reset'
