Subject: [GIT PULL] ARM: zte: Add zx297520v3 platform support

Dear SoC maintainers,

Here is my pull request for adding initial support for ZTE's zx297520v3 SoC. 
The code has been reviewed on the linux-arm-kernel mailing list. My ultimate 
goal is to run OpenWRT on these devices.

This SoC is used in low end LTE-to-WiFi routers, for example some D-Link
DWR 932 revisions, ZTE K10, ZLT S10 4G, but also models that are branded
and sold by ISPs themselves. They are widespread in Africa, China,
Russia and Eastern Europe.

This SoC is a relative of the zx296702 and zx296718 that had some
upstream support until commit 89d4f98ae90d ("ARM: remove zte zx
platform").

The following changes since commit 254f49634ee16a731174d2ae34bc50bd5f45e731:

  Linux 7.1-rc1 (2026-04-26 14:19:00 -0700)
