To configure the Linux kernel, we currently provide two options:
1. Passing a defconfig name (for example "multi_v7"), to which we append
"_defconfig" to run "make multi_v7_defconfig".
2. Passing a path to a custom configuration file.
Unfortunately, those two possibilities do not allow to configure the
kernel when you want to use the default configuration built into the
kernel for a given architecture. For example, on ARM64, there is a
single defconfig simply called "defconfig", which you can load by
running "make defconfig".
Using the mechanism (1) above doesn't work because we append
"_defconfig" automatically.
One solution would be to change (1) and require the user to enter the
full defconfig named (i.e "multi_v7_defconfig" instead of "multi_v7"),
but we would break all existing Buildroot configurations.
So instead, we add a third option, which simply tells Buildroot to use
the default configuration for the selected architecture. In this case,
Buildroot will configure the kernel by running "make defconfig".

- Remove portability patch since it's no longer needed. I have asked
Mark Wielaard regarding this topic given the portability patch looks
been discontinued since 0.163 and he replied the following:
- "I believe it is no longer needed. At least not on any platform I
am actively maintaining. See also this discussion from last year:
https://lists.fedorahosted.org/pipermail/elfutils-devel/2015-May/004825.html"
- Add zlib dependency since it's now mandatory:
configure: error: zlib not found but is required

Similar to jquery-keyboard, it seems the bullet tarball on the autobuilder
is corrupt. Fix it by adding a .hash file so it falls back to our s.b.o
mirror.

Commit a93fc34 modified e2fsprogs to symlink /usr/sbin/fsck to /sbin/fsck
to keep systemd happy. However, later on commit c5bd8af6 has forced
/usr/sbin to be a symlink to /sbin when using systemd. This means fsck
gets destroyed as a symlink to itself when using systemd or when setting
BR2_ROOTFS_MERGED_USR.
Since commit c5bd8af6 obsoletes commit a93fc34 revert the changes from
commit a93fc34 to solve the issue.

By default hwdb files are installed in /usr/lib/udev/hwdb.d
Currently they take about ~5MB. After first boot, systemd-hwdb tool
parses them and creates a binary in /etc/udev/hwdb.bin, which takes
another ~6.5MB.
In case of initramfs images, hwdb parsing is done every boot. This adds
about 2-3 seconds to boot time in case of rootfs on SDHC class 10
card (benchmarked with am335x board). NAND boot takes even longer.
Add config option to disable hwdb in systemd, for smaller images and
better boot performance.
