Masahiro Yamada 6dd5a33c48 zynq_zed: bump U-Boot to xilinx-v2016.2
This is the latest release tag in the Xilinx repository, based on
U-Boot v2016.01 in the mainline.

Commit 46d6a561be ("zedboard: Generate BOOT.BIN automatically")
switched from the Xilinx GitHub repository to the U-Boot mainline,
but this commit gets it back to the Xilinx GitHub repository for the
following reasons:

 - This defconfig still relies on the Xilinx's local repository for
   the kernel.  The vendor does the best test for the combination of
   U-Boot and the kernel with the same release tag (xilinx-v2016.2
   in this case).

 - At the time of commit 46d6a561be, the u-boot-xlnx still needed
   manual copy of ps7_init(_gpl).c/h in order to build a working SPL
   image.  So, the mainline U-Boot had advantage in that point of
   time.  However, the improvement in the mainline U-Boot was merged
   into the u-boot-xlnx at the xilinx-v2015.3 release.  Now, the
   mainline and the u-boot-xlnx are even in this point of view.

 - The mainline U-Boot defaults to boot FIT, so something must be
   done; either patch environments around with a local patch to
   switch to uImage booting (current solution), or build an FIT
   with a post build script (chromebook snow does this).  On the
   other hand, the Xilinx repository defaults to uImage booting,
   so it is straightforward, and needs no addition care.

This commit does:

 - Switch to the Xilinx custom git repository, and stick to the
   xilinx-v2016.2 tag.

 - Delete the local patch board/avnet/zedboard/uboot/0001...
   since the Xilinx custom repository can boot uImage by default.

 - Enable BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_FORMAT_IMG instead of ..._FORMAT_DTB_IMG
   since all the Zynq boards in U-Boot enable CONFIG_OF_EMBED.

 - Replace BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_ZYNQ_IMAGE with BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_SPL_NAME
   since U-Boot can natively generate the Zynq boot image now. The
   Zynq image support for mkimage tool was upstreamed at v2016.01
   (so xilinx-v2016.1 as well), so no additional tool is needed
   any more.

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.
