+Subject: [PATCH 1/3] firmware-utils: tplink-safeloader: support strings as
+ soft_version
+
+Some TP-Link routers (C25, C59, C60) contain a version string instead
+of a binary structure in the soft_version partition.
+
+Flashing LEDE from the original firmware's GUI, this version string
+taken from the soft_ver partition of the firmware image is written to
+the router's config partition.
+
+When using tftp recovery to go back to the original Archer C25 firmware,
+a version check compares that version to the version of the firmware to
+be flashed.
+
+Without proper contents in the config partition, reverting to the
+original firmware fails.
+
+Therefore, write the string "soft_ver:1.0.0\n" to that soft_ver
+partition.

+From: Ludwig Thomeczek <ledesrc@wxorx.net>
+Date: Sat, 13 May 2017 11:40:48 +0200
+Subject: [PATCH 3/3] firmware-utils: tplink-safeloader: add TP-Link Archer C25
+ v1
+
+This adds the necessary firmware layout definitions for the Archer C25.
+It has an addtional partition containing some static data ("extra-para")
+without which no factory flash is possible, therefore put_data() has been
+added.
