Thomas Petazzoni 793ee1011e Remove support for the NDS32 architecture
The support for this architecture has been removed from the upstream
Linux kernel, as of commit:

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=aec499c75cf8e0b599be4d559e6922b613085f8f

Which states:

  The nds32 architecture, also known as AndeStar V3, is a custom
  32-bit RISC target designed by Andes Technologies. Support was added
  to the kernel in 2016 as the replacement RISC-V based V5 processors
  were already announced, and maintained by (current or former) Andes
  employees.

  As explained by Alan Kao, new customers are now all using RISC-V,
  and all known nds32 users are already on longterm stable kernels
  provided by Andes, with no development work going into mainline
  support any more.

There has also been little to no maintenance done in Buildroot for
this architecture in recent times, so let's follow the Linux kernel
community decision and drop support for this CPU architecture.

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 OFTC IRC.
