[PATCH] Unifi AC: remove bs-partition ro-flag

[Adrian Schmutzler]

This patch allows to modify the bs-partition on the AC Mesh.

Without the patch, the bs partition on the AC Mesh is locked
forever. This can be a problem if
a) the bs partition has not been updated correctly during initial flash
b) the sysupgrade mechanism is altered by OpenWRT in order to account for
the flip flop layout

+Subject: [PATCH] ar71xx: remove bs-partition ro-flag for UniFi AC
+
+This removes the read-only flag from the bs (bootselect) partition
+on UniFi AC devices. This allows to correct the indicator from which
+partition the device is booting its kernel from.
