Are you talking about the RouterBOARD 711G 5HnD or the RouterBOARD 711 5HnD? I only managed to flash the non-G variant, I'm still booting the other version over the network to this day.
Here is the original rb711-openwrt.patch:

Apply it on top of the openwrt-19.07 branch. This patch should work for the non-G version. For the other one, add a G to CONFIG_CMDLINE in the right place. Only the non-G version works properly when flashed with this, the other version needs to be booted over the network. Let me know if you have trouble getting this working and I'll try to help you.
If you ever try to port this to ath79, let me know so we can work on this together.
