OK Guys before leaving to vacation got chance to make this. Here is the procedure, follow to the letter.
I am about to leave for vacation so coudn't test it, but already tested and reported by @mrtipster49

Now your device will have KNox enabled bootloader.

2.Download MJ5BLPatch.tar.md5 and Flash with Odin for PDA Tab.

3.Reboot device, You won't have wifi working.

4.Download wifi patch and flash with Odin for PDA tab.

5.Reboot device and you will have old Knox free bootloader with Wifi working.

8.Don't open SuperSU but straight way go to play store and update SuperSU

I think only deodexed script won't work, you have to flash patch to make it working as what I understand this security.
Actually i have even not flashed mj5 ever on my device, i have no time left for now. But bash can be helpful but still I doubt you can make it to work on one go.
Still it will be helpful for users as they can get prerooted and deodexed rom.

Agree.
But I meant bash script using terminal emulator to run once and do the deodexing. Or maybe offline script from recovery. Let me see. I might succeed.

No no not for deodexing, what I mean to say even after making prerooted and deodexed, it may need to flash patch to activate wifi. So after running flashable rom zip, one have to apply patch.

Can someone explain how does the new bootloader affect the device?
Does it restrict recovery access? Custom roms and kernels?
What's the benefit of not upgrading to the new bootloader?
