Jesse Taube 2cc1902943 configs/imxrt1050-evk: new defconfig
Add defconfig for imxrt1050-evk is a development board from NXP.

The i.MXRTxxxx family spreads from i.MXRT1020 to i.MXRT1170 with the
first one supporting 1 USB OTG & 100M ethernet with a cortex-M7@500Mhz
up to the latter with i.MXRT1170 with cortex-M7@1Ghz and
cortex-M4@400Mhz, 2MB of internal SRAM, 2D GPU, 2x 1Gb and 1x 100Mb
ENET. The i.MXRT family is NXP's answer to STM32F7xx, as it uses only
simple SDRAM, it gives the chance of a 4 or less layer PCBs. Seeing
that these chips are comparable to the STM32F7xxs which have Buildroot
ported to them it seems reasonable to add support for them.

NXP i.MXRT1050 EVK board
------------------------
i.MX RT1050 are NXP's crossover MCUs. They combine the high performance and high
level of integration of an applications processors with the ease-of-use and
real-time functionality of a microcontroller. The i.MX RT1050 MCU runs on the Arm
Cortex-M7 core at 600 MHz.

To build a minimal support for this board:
$ make imxrt1050-evk_defconfig
$ make
Buildroot prepares a bootable "sdcard.img" image in the output/images/
directory, ready to be flashed into the SD card:
$ dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX
Where 'sdX' is the device node of the uSD.
Jumper settings:
SW7: 1 0 1 0
Where 0 means bottom position and 1 means top position (from the
switch label numbers reference).
Connect the USB cable between the EVK and the PC for the console.
Insert the micro SD card in the board, power it up and U-Boot messages should come up.
