65ceab5261 arm:make the kernel server and driver binaries identical.
Make the kernel server and driver binaries indentical for the different
ARM platforms. We no longer need to define the AM335X or DM37XX flags
during compilation. The remaining differences are all located in u-boot.

8c02dd7b2a arm:refactor replace cmdline.txt by bootargs passed to the kernel.
Put the boot arguments in uEnv.txt and not in cmdline.txt to allow
a more dynamic configuration of the system. We now also pass the
u-boot board_name parameter to the kernel.

91a2fe4aba arm:manage versioning of u-boot and upgrade u-boot
Replaced the wget download of u-boot by a versioned git checkout
this allows us to better manage the u-boot and MLO version we ship
while still allowing us to build ofline.

This changes replaces the BASE_URL setting by U_BOOT_BIN_DIR and
also updates to a newer build of u-boot.

b6d951df17 arm_sdimage.sh: use native minix partition util
. make filesystems on primary partitions to make it
	  easier on the minix partition util
	. so sfdisk isn't required as an external tool
	. also make partition and hitherto x86-only utilities
	  arch-independent

eb1e5bf042 build:arm allow to store build settings in a .settings file.
If present a file called .settings will be sourced when
calling the arm_sdimage.sh script. This allows to configure
the build setting for arm build without the need to specify
the flags each time arm_sdimage.sh is called.

For example to configure arm_sdimage.sh to target the
beaglebone put the following content in your .settings file.

BASE_URL=http://www.minix3.org/arm/beaglebone
FLAG=-DAM335X
CONSOLE=tty00

Also generate cmdline.txt as we need to use a different serial
for the AM335X boards.

6364989e36 arm:add DDM37XX cflag
We are planning on using the NetBSD config system to perform build
system configuration when targeting different hardware variants.
This functionality however is not integrated yet and we currently
rely on using ifdef's in the code. This commit add the DDM37XX flag.

881ff3f6e5 releasetools/arm_sdimage.sh: Improvements
- Added the possibility to define the number of parallel jobs from the
   command line with (example, default is 1):
   $ JOBS=8 ./releasetools/arm_sdimage.sh

 - Generate filesystem filling the reserved partition area, instead of
   being smaller.

 - Added a possibility to specify additional parameter to the build.sh
   script from the command line with (example):
   $ BUILDVARS='-N0 -V MYVAR=yes' ./releasetools/arm_sdimage.sh

8a3677def0 build:refactor arm_sdimage.sh as to no longer require root.
There where two reasons for needing root access while making ARM builds. The
first reason was that we needed root permissions to create device nodes and
assign permissions to files. The second reason we needed root was that we used
loop mounted files to copy the build output to the file backed storage.

The first problem is solved by building in unprivileged mode (adding -U) during
compilation. The second problem is solved by using mcopy to put files on the
fat partition and use the mkfs.mfs proto files to create MFS file system.

Future work might be to replace this script by the netbsd makefs tool.

149ed6cff5 build:small fixes to arm_sdimage.
* Use the same output directory as was previously the standard.
* Add copying of uEnv and cmdline to the obj directory to allow booting from tftp.
* No longer start qemu at the end of the process.
* Use sudo if the script was called as non root user.

5acaa0814f kernel, ramdisk: some boot unification
To use the new SD building script, Linux has to be configured with
loop.max_part=15 on the command line (or set at module load time)
to make the loopback device see the partitions.

This commit removes a lot of differences between the ARM and x86
boot ramdisk and rc scripts. It changes the ARM build from running
from ramdisk to requiring a full filesystem on the SD image and
booting into it.

	. ramdisk: remove some arm-only utilities only used for running
	  from the shell
	. remove ARM-only rc.arm, proto.arm.small, ttys and mylogin.sh
	  boot-time ramdisk files
	. change kernel to add "arch" variable so userland knows what
	  we're running on from sysenv
	. make ARM use the regular ramdisk rc file, changed to distinguish
	  i386-only and ARM-only drivers; requires rootdevname to be set
	. change /etc/rc and /usr/etc/rc to start i386-only drivers only on
	  i386 systems
	. change the kernel/arm to have a special case for the memory
	  driver to load it higher so it can be bigger
	. add uEnv.txt, cmdline.txt and a for now highly linux-dependent
	  SD preparation script arm_sdimage.sh to the git repository in
	  releasetools/
