f268f7131b .mk files: bulk aligment and whitespace cleanup of assignments
The Buildroot coding style defines one space around make assignments and
does not align the assignment symbols.

This patch does a bulk fix of offending packages. The package
infrastructures (or more in general assignments to calculated variable
names, like $(2)_FOO) are not touched.

Alignment of line continuation characters (\) is kept as-is.

The sed command used to do this replacement is:
find * -name "*.mk" | xargs sed -i \
    -e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*$#\1 \2#'
    -e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*\([^\\]\+\)$#\1 \2 \3#'
    -e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*\([^\\ \t]\+\s*\\\)\s*$#\1 \2 \3#'
    -e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\(\s*\\\)#\1 \2\3#'

Brief explanation of this command:
    ^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)     a regular variable at the beginning of the line
    \([?:+]\?=\)            any assignment character =, :=, ?=, +=
    \([^\\]\+\)             any string not containing a line continuation
    \([^\\ \t]\+\s*\\\)     string, optional whitespace, followed by a
                            line continuation character
    \(\s*\\\)               optional whitespace, followed by a line
                            continuation character

Hence, the first subexpression handles empty assignments, the second
handles regular assignments, the third handles regular assignments with
line continuation, and the fourth empty assignments with line
continuation.

This expression was tested on following test text: (initial tab not
included)

	FOO     = spaces before
	FOO     =   spaces before and after
	FOO	= tab before
	FOO	  = tab and spaces before
	FOO =	tab after
	FOO =	   tab and spaces after
	FOO =   	spaces and tab after
	FOO =    \
	FOO = bar \
	FOO = bar space    \
	FOO   =		   \
	GENIMAGE_DEPENDENCIES   = host-pkgconf libconfuse
	FOO     += spaces before
	FOO     ?=   spaces before and after
	FOO     :=
	FOO     =
	FOO	=
	FOO	  =
	FOO =
	   $(MAKE1) CROSS_COMPILE=$(TARGET_CROSS) -C
	AT91BOOTSTRAP3_DEFCONFIG = \
	AXEL_DISABLE_I18N=--i18n=0

After this bulk change, following manual fixups were done:
- fix line continuation alignment in cegui06 and spice (the sed
  expression leaves the number of whitespace between the value and line
  continuation character intact, but the whitespace before that could have
  changed, causing misalignment.
- qt5base was reverted, as this package uses extensive alignment which
  actually makes the code more readable.

Finally, the end result was manually reviewed.

025d4a1729 linux: remove support of linux26-* targets
The linux-* mirror targets of linux26-* have been added a very long time ago
(2010) and linux 2.6 is now considered 'old' anyway. It no longer makes

This is a simplification introduced in preparation of the kconfig-package

62bbfbaa63 pkg-utils: kconfig helpers: use single iso double quoting
The echo statements in the kconfig helpers are currently using double
quotes. For KCONFIG_SET_OPT this is problematic when the value argument
itself contains a double quote (a string value). In this case, the statement
    echo "$(1)=$(2)" >> $(3)
would become:
    echo "FOO="string value"" >> /some/path/.config
resulting in the string
    FOO=string value
in the config file, rather than the properly quoted
    FOO="string value"

The linux package worked around this by escaping the quote characters, but
a prettier solution is to use single quoting in the helpers (or
alternatively use no quoting at all).
A side effect of this change is that a $variable in the key or value would
no longer be interpreted by the shell, removing any unexpected behavior.

This change is only really necessary for KCONFIG_SET_OPT, but for symmetry
reasons the other helpers are updated too.

773ee9797a smack: new package.
SMACK stands for Simplified Mandatory Access Control Kernel. It is a Linux
Security Module which provides a Mandatory Access Control mechanism,
like SELinux, but aiming towards simplicity.

This package provides the tools to load/unload the policy from the
kernel as well as a library allowing applications to interact with
SMACK. The proper kernel options are also set.

[Thomas:
- fixed license to be LGPLv2.1 instead of LGPLv2.1+. Even though the
  debian/copyright file has the "or later" indication, none of the .c
  source files carry it, so I suppose LGPLv2.1 is more correct.
- added !BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB dependency.
- added dependency on host-pkgconf, since Smack configure.ac uses
  PKG_CHECK_MODULES.]

ca80782f45 linux: only depend on host-lzop if needed
There is no reason to always depend on host-lzop, even when the kernel
compression is not LZO.

Since LZO is not the default compression option in the kernel (and there
is not sign that will change in the foreseeable future), it will always
appear in a config file, whether it is a complete config file or it is
only a defconfig.

So, only depend on host-lzop if the LZO compression is enabled in the
kernel config file (either the defconfig or the custom config file).
This includes:
  - kernel compression itself
  - initrd compression
  - initramfs compression

2c66e4429d systemd: bump to v207
This patch bumps systemd to v207 but also declares it as a provider for the
udev virtual package.

Starting with systemd 183, udev has been merged into
systemd. The udev daemon is now installed as /lib/systemd/systemd-udevd.
This means that /dev management using udev is only available if systemd
is chosen as init system.

When configuring systemd, the following options are available:

- activation of systemd-journal-gatewayd, to access the journal via
  HTTP.
- activation of extra features like journal compression and sealing.

Support for uClibc has also been removed because:

- upstream has no interest in supporting uClibc.
- using a shrinked libc brings no advantage, given the size of all the
  programs included in Systemd. So using glibc does not matter.

When mdev /dev management is chosen in the buildroot configuration, the
Linux configuration is updated automatically to set option
CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH to "/sbin/mdev". However, the help text of this
option explicitly recommends not setting this option due to large
performance impact during boot (experienced first hand by the reporter ánd
author).

The mdev startup script S10mdev already sets the helper during userspace
boot, which will make sure mdev is working correctly.

ed23c92b62 linux: enable initrd/initramfs support when cpio rootfs is chosen
When one enables the generation of a cpio archive of the root
filesystem, the most likely usage is as an initramfs for the
kernel. This commit ensures that the kernel has initramfs support when
the rootfs cpio image format is chosen.

This will for example ensure that if the user selects the ISO9660
filesystem format (which uses a cpio initramfs), the kernel will have
proper support to load and use the initramfs.

It is worth mentionning that when BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_INITRAMFS is
enabled, then BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_CPIO is always enabled. That's why we
move the enabling of CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD from the initramfs case to
the cpio case.

72189e5b10 linux: remove EABI conditional
We're only EABI now, so we want to always build an EABI kernel
when we're building for ARM.

391c82efa1 linux: Do not force GZIP initramfs compression
Initramfs compression does not make much sense for the architectures
that support compressed kernel images because in this case the data
would be compressed twice. This will eventually result in a bigger
kernel image and time overhead when uncompressing it.
The only reason to use compressed initramfs is to reduce memory
usage when the kernel prepares rootfs, and both the unpacked
filesystem and initramfs.cpio are present in the memory.

Buildroot attempts to force GZIP compression for initramfs,
however it doesn't always work because initramfs compression mode
depends on RAM disk compression supported by the kernel.
Thus, CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_GZIP depends on CONFIG_RD_GZIP.
If CONFIG_RD_GZIP is not set, setting GZIP initramfs compression
will have no effect.

Besides, the kernel also supports other compression methods,
like BZIP2, LZMA, XZ and LZO. Forcing the good old GZIP does not
really make much sense any more.

This removes initramfs compression settings from Buildroot,
so that the default value preset in the kernel config is used,
which is CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE.

If initramfs compression is still needed, it can be set
in the kernel config (using make linux-menuconfig)
