Yann E. MORIN 207c596ad7 fs/common: get rid of post-target rules
The only users of post-target rules were ext2, cpio and initramfs.

Of those, ext2 and cpio were changed to use post-gen hooks, while
initramfs was not even using the generic rootfs infra and was fixed
to no longer reference post-target rules.

Besides, the comment in the infra was really misleading: it referenced
initramfs implying it was the sole user of that feature, even though
initramfs was not using the fs infra.

Furthermore, using post-target rules was inherently broken for top-level
parallel builds, because filesystems had to ensure the ordering by
themselves. Of the two real users of post-target rules (cpio and ext2),
one did enforce rules ordering (apparently correctly), while the other
forgot to do so.

We can get rid of post-target rules altogether, now.

Add a legacy check, to catch out-of-tree (e.g. br2-external) users of
post-target rules, and instruct them to switch to post-gen hooks instead.

README

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
