Yann E. MORIN e782cd5b1b Revert "Added local directory as source of kernel code"
This reverts commit 73da2ff6f7.

The reason for adding support for a local location was to be able to do
development on the Linux kernel source tree on a local directory rather
than have to clone it for every build.

We already have a mechanism for that, it's called override-srcdir. It's
been available since September 2011, more than a year before this patch
was committed.

Otherwise, we're going to be adding support for local sources in other
packages. First was U-Boot as submitted by Adam. But what next? We can't
have such support for all packages, especially since override-srcdir
does the job.

Besides, using a local source tree makes the build non-reproducible, so
we don't really want to have this in a .config (or defconfig).

We only handle the boolean option in legacy, as there is nothing we can
do with the directory path.

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.
