MXS platforms (imx23 and imx28) are relying on bootlets as their first
stage bootloaders, that can then either start a regular second stage
bootloader or directly a Linux kernel. However, the Makefile allows
only to build u-boot and linux images at the same time, which is
not very convenient as we will more likely use only one of them,
so we need to duplicate a bit what is already done so that we are able
to choose what we want to generate.

* Remove incorrect dependency on BR2_PACKAGE_ELFTOSB
* Each board configuration option is for one board, not multiple
boards, so use singular.
* The i.MX28 support is for i.MX28 EVK only, reflect that in the
option prompt and the option name.
* Use 'generic-package' instead of GENTARGETS

add patch that creates a standard setup.py file. This allows the
.pyc files to be generated at build time, and installed into the
target. This is important because by default, Buildroot removes all
.py files from the target, to keep only the .pyc files. The
python-nfc.mk file was changed to use this setup.py standard build
process.]

gcc 4.6 has become more sensitive about option ordering, especially
libraries. It requires the -l flags to be placed after the object
files that need that library. See for example
http://nick.zoic.org/art/etc/gcc-linker-libs.html. We had -llua at the
beginning of the link command line, causing build issues (here on gcc
4.6 with host-lua).

Commit ad6af5819f removed the
HOST_LUA_DEPENDENCIES assignement to the empty variable, so from that
commit, the dependencies of host-lua are automatically computed from
the dependencies of lua. Since lua can depend on readline and ncurses,
it means that host-lua can depend on host-readline and host-ncurses,
and the host-readline package does not exist in Buildroot. Since there
is no reason to build host-lua with readline/ncurses support, just
re-add the HOST_LUA_DEPENDENCIES variable.

The libnfc package is currently at version 1.5.1 in Buildroot. This patch
bumps the version to a recent svn revision, for the following reasons.
* Version 1.5.1 is marked as "unstable" on the libnfc download site.
* The nfc-tools project at
http://code.google.com/p/nfc-tools/
includes a library that extends libnfc with LLCP functionality.
Unfortunately, to build this requires a libnfc version no lower than 1.6.
The version 1.6.0-rc1 Release Candidate does not build; svn commits to fix
the build problems have not yet been back-ported into a Release Candidate.
* The libfreefare package is currently at version 0.3.2 in Buildroot. To bump
this to the most recent version (0.3.4) also requires a libnfc version no
lower than 1.6.
I suggest that this patch be regarded as a temporary fix, pending the release
of libnfc 1.6, which will allow other dependent packages to be progressed in
the interim.

The --enable-threadsafe option was unconditionally passed, without
taking into account whether the underlying toolchain had thread
support or not. Now, we properly pass --enable-threadsafe or
--disable-threadsafe depending on the availability of thread support.

Create host-generic-package, host-autotools-package and
host-cmake-package macros. Such a macro is more intuitive to use than
the $(call ...,host) construct. Also it speeds things up by having
one less $(call ...) evaluation.
Also includes documentation update, but not for buildroot.html.
This brings the time for 'make -qp' (which is used by bash-completion)
down from 1.85s to 1.35s on my laptop.

a package from having a host only variant. This has been fixed since
then, so we can get rid of the useless dummy target package.
