DISTRO_TYPE doesn't seem to be set anywhere in OE/poky. This causes
CMDLINE_DEBUG to default to "debug" which is very noisy. This is
especially true when building a systemd based system, as systemd
also looks at the kernel commandline to set the debug level.
Such a system is nearly unuseable from the serial console due
to the amount of data logged by systemd.

The rpi-4.8.y branch of git://github.com/raspberrypi/linux.git was rebased,
losing any previous commit hashes. This latest update doesn't include the
raspberry pi patches for 4.8.6, but the upstream patches are included starting
with 4.8.11.

Kernel 4.4.6+ on RaspberryPi support .dtbo files for overlays, instead of .dtb.
Patch the kernel, which has faulty rules to generate .dtbo the way yocto does

Recent versions of the Raspberry Pi firmware can directly handle kernel images
which use device tree. The modifications made by rpi-mkimage are no longer
needed.

Additionally add few few file systems e.g. squashfs, overlayfs
to support booting with initramfs
Drop checking for target triplet to set EABI, rpi probaly should
not have any legacy into OABI world.

The driver for 8250 defaults to 9600. We setup it on 115200 to be consistent
with getty configuration.
The firmware can do its magic with kgdboc too as it searches and replaces
=serial0 and =serial1. So, use serial0 for kgdboc too.

General policy is to support three kernel versions; latest stable + two
longterm versions. These are currently 4.4, 4.1, and 3.18.

- Add support to build overlays for PiTFT22 in the kernel.
- Setup a basic configuration for the driver
The PiTFT22 support is optional and can be enabled by adding below in
local.conf:
MACHINE_FEATURES += "pitft pitft22"
This patch also includes restructuring of kernel patches per kernel version

Add basic support for PiTFT display by using device-trees.
In order get it working below configurations must be active in
local.conf:
MACHINE_FEATURES += "pitft"
- This will enable SPI bus and i2c device-trees, it will also setup
framebuffer for console and x server on PiTFT.

The rpi-mkimage tools are installed ${libexecdir}/rpi-mkimage within
native sysroot, where ${libexecdir} resolves to /usr/libexec. This caused
the build to fail due to recipe trying to access ${libdir}/mkimage. Fix
the paths to use an unambiguous STAGING_LIBEXECDIR_NATIVE so that a
proper location is used.
