Buildroot supplies a nice /init wrapper script to use when booting from a
ramdisk.
We add a patch to u-boot to tell the kernel to boot into /init (instead of
/linuxrc) on i.MX6, when booting in mfgtools mode. This way we can boot a
buildroot system entirely through USB.

Bump zedboard defconfig to version 2014.1. This makes it possible to use
uboot-spl instead of the xilinx specific fsbl. However, the result is kinda
hacky due to the licensing state of ps7_init.{c,h} needed for building uboot
spl. Directions for building a proper boot.bin using the new methodolgy is
included in the readme.txt.

The alsa utils packages require a kernel with IPC support to run. The
kernel config for the x86 and x86_64 qemu build includes sound support
using the hda driver but without the IPC support the alsa utils won't work.
This patch adds IPC support to the x86 and x86_64 kernel to allow alsa
utils to run and brings the kernel config inline with kernel configs for
other qemu boards.

This commit updates the defconfig of the foundation-v8 platform, which
can be tested under the AArch64 emulator provided by ARM. The main
change is that we switch to the mainline 3.13.6 kernel instead of a
Linaro-specific Git tree.
Another change is to update the download link for the emulator in the
instructions, in order to use the latest version of the emulator,
which was used for testing.

As of this commit the microblaze qemu targets seem broken, probably
because of commit 14e527eb66 or some qemu

This commit introduces initial support for the Arrow SoCkit
boards, featuring an Altera Cyclone V SoC:
http://www.altera.com/b/arrow-sockit.html
It is based on Roman Diouskine's work at
https://github.com/rndi/buildroot-alt.
The kernel and the u-boot used is the one developped by the
rocketboards.org community, as mainline support is not fully
available yet.
More info is available in the board/altera/sockit/readme.txt file.

It's a 3.12.10 kernel with TI's own patches on top.
The defconfig has been kept rather close to our old defconfig.
The kernel has been boot-tested using an NFS-root.
Apart from the kernel change, the linux headers has also been
updated from 3.8.12 to 3.12.10.

'rpi' is short for Raspberry Pi, so name all our Raspberry Pi ressource
