[Cake] Cake on openwrt - falling behind

[Georgios Amanakis]

Great Pete!

For cake it's not hard to do, previously I was just switching
PKG_SOURCE_VERSION in package/kernel/kmod-sched-cake/Makefile to the latest
git commit. That would be:
PKG_SOURCE_VERSION:=0520a6cbcce759b109568b26df3b6081aed42483
Then I just go for "make package/kmod-sched-cake/compile -j1 V=s" in
openwrt root directory. The version in git master should also compile for
4.14, shouldn't it?

For tc-adv, I don't exactly remember out of the top of my head, but I think
I had to modify the iproute2-full package which also compiles TC. I will
let you know once I get my hands on it.
