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.

To make the naming consistent (all user-visible options should be
prefixed with BR2_).
An entry is added to Makefile.legacy to warn users who have set
BUILDROOT_CONFIG but not BR2_CONFIG.
Still export BUILDROOT_CONFIG but pointing to some phony value, to
make sure that scripts that still use it fail in a predictable way.

The Linux kernel headers versions 3.1, 3.3, and 3.5 have been deprecated
since 2013.02 and thus can be removed in 2014.02.
For legacy handling, we automatically select versions 3.2, 3.4, and 3.6,
respectively.
Additionally, this patch removes the now unused symbol
BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_2013_02.

By default, the UBI FS target creates a ubinize configuration
file on-the-fly, for a single volume. Add an option to specify
a custom config file.
E.g., one might want to deploy a system with a volume for the
built ubifs image, a volume for a future upgrade image, and a
volume for user data.

scan_patchdir is called recursively. For this to work properly, the
variable path which is set to $1 at the very beginning must be local not
global.
A test case is to set BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR to 'mypatches' and having the
following tree in the buildroot root:
$ find mypatches/
mypatches/
mypatches/busybox
mypatches/busybox/subdir.patch
mypatches/busybox/subdir.patch/busybox-0001-abc.patch
mypatches/busybox/busybox-0002-def.patch
mypatches/busybox/asubdir.patch
mypatches/busybox/asubdir.patch/busybox-0003-xyz.patch
When running 'make busybox-dirclean busybox-patch' originally, you'd get:
Applying busybox-0003-xyz.patch using patch:
Applying busybox-0002-def.patch using patch:
Error: missing patch file

With toolchains that include linux kernel headers before the 3.4 kernel,
an issue exists with linux/mmc/ioctl.h in that it doesn't include
linux/types.h.
Merged the patch with an existing patch for mmc-utils as it modifies
the same file and fixes similar issues. Also updated the patch to
conform to the buildroot patch naming standard.
