Our default mdev.conf file in package/busybox has lines like:
pcm.* root:audio 660 =snd/
event[0-9]+ root:root 640 =input/
that are used to create the device is the appropriate /dev
subdirectory. However, this feature requires
CONFIG_FEATURE_MDEV_RENAME to be enabled, otherwise mdev complains
with:
mdev: bad line 25

Without an mdev.conf file installed, mdev generates some /dev entries in
an incorrect or non-standard way. Some examples:
1. /dev/null has permissions 660, but it should be accessible to normal
users;
2. alsa devices get created in /dev, not /dev/snd as is more common,
and as the default value of BR2_PACKAGE_ALSA_LIB_DEVDIR suggests;
3. event<N> files are created in /dev, not /dev/input.
This mdev.conf is a selection from the examples provided in the busybox
sources with minor tweaks.

Four methods for the creation of device files in /dev are now
proposed:
- static method uses device table as before
- devtmpfs method enables this feature in kernel
- mdev method adds mdev starting script to the file system
and selects mdev itself for installation
- udev method selects udev for installation
All dynamic methods are based on devtmpfs, so one doesn't need to care
about /dev folder.

For some ABI's (like FLAT), we cannot strip busybox as the file format
does not support it and strip will abort with errors like 'File format
not recognized'. Since the toplevel already takes care of stripping
things, simply disable the busybox step.

When compiling Busybox, according to readelf -A, all object files were
properly compiled according to the select architecture (-march=armv4t
for example), but the final busybox binary could be of a different
architecture (ARMv5t even if ARMv4t was selected).
This patch changes the way we configure/compile Busybox so that our
CFLAGS aren't anymore passed through the make EXTRA_CFLAGS variable,
but through the .config CONFIG_EXTRA_CFLAGS variable. Unfortunately,
those variables don't have exactly the same semantic for the Busybox
build system.

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.
