We have a special case for Xtensa, which was patching the generic
device_table.txt. Instead of doing this, we just keep a copy of the
device table, specific to Xtensa, with Xtensa specifities. The fact
that the patch wasn't applying anymore on the generic device table is
a sign that the existing approach wasn't working anyway.

Until now, the location of the device table was specified by a
variable in board Makefiles. Unfortunately, this variable is not
accessible from fs/common.mk, since the target/ code is included
*after* fs/common.mk.
Anyway, the general idea is to move away from these boards Makefile,
and provide configuration option for things like the device table
location.
Therefore, this patch adds a BR2_ROOTFS_DEVICE_TABLE option which
allows to specify which device table should be used.

The installation procedure of cramfs was broken when
$(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin didn't exist (i.e, cramfsck was installed as
$(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin directly). Use install -D with a proper
destination argument to make it work.

These options are part of the default set of options passed to
./configure by the AUTOTARGETS infrastructure.

Since the introduction of the AUTOTARGETS infrastructure, the dummy
example is no longer correct. Moreover, the documentation now contains
extensive details about how new packages should be added, either using
the GENTARGETS or the AUTOTARGETS infrastructures.

Bumping the version from 2.5.9 to 2.6 allows to avoid adding a patch
(merged upstream) to fix patch's Makefile install target.

Since BR2_RECENT was enabled by default, we do not want entries marked
BR2_RECENT (and thus appearing by default in Buildroot) to disappear.
Therefore, all the entries marked BR2_RECENT are converted as
non-deprecated. We can later decide, on a per-entry basis, to add
BR2_DEPRECATED to some of them. But at least, this commit doesn't
change the default current behaviour of Buildroot.

This variable, together with the FIXME comment, has been added has
part of Eric Andersen's « Major buildroot facelift, step one » commit
that occured in October 2004.
Since then, no real usage has been made of OPTIMIZE_FOR_CPU, and the
initial intention has probably been lost in the memories of the
implementors.
Therefore, get rid of the variable, and just use $(ARCH) at the two
locations the variable was used.

It seems that there was an intention to add BR2_ENABLE_OPENMP someday,
but it was in June 2007 (commit
c81807a9d7) and since then, nothing
occured. Therefore, get rid of this code, and just pass
--disable-openmp to gettext to keep the current behaviour.
