Masahiro Yamada 3907b1ac66 zynq: document how to use custom ps7_init files
Since U-Boot supported SPL for Zynq boards at v2014.04 release, it
became much easier to build a system.  At that time, however, users
still needed to manually copy ps7_init.c/h to the U-Boot source tree
to generate a working SPL image because ps7_init.c/h output from
Xilinx tools are not compatible with GPL.

Later, the license problem was solved when Xilinx tools became able
to output the GPL-compatible variants (ps7_init_gpl.c/h) as well.
U-Boot v2015.07 or later includes ps7_init_gpl.c/h for major Zynq
boards so that users can build a boot image straight away.

Now Buildroot supports 3 boards (Zedboard, MicroZed, ZC706) without
any manual intervention.  This is a good thing itself, but commit
b9cd72cdbf ("zynq_zc706: bump U-Boot to xilinx-v2016.2") entirely
dropped the information about custom ps7_init files.

This commit provides up-to-date guidance for how to customize the
ps7_init files.

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.
