As detailed in my comments to PATCH 1/7, this patch needs to be
refactored with BR2_BFIN_FDPIC/BR2_BFIN_FLAT to avoid breaking existing
code.

Also, I believe we want to add some architecture dependencies here. For
the beginning, we at least want something like:

+# Set up target binary format
+choice
+	prompt "Target Binary Format"
+	default BR2_BINFMT_ELF
+config BR2_BINFMT_ELF
+	bool "ELF"
+	depends on !BR2_bfin
+config BR2_BINFMT_FDPIC
+	bool "FDPIC"
+	depends on BR2_bfin
+config BR2_BINFMT_FLAT
+	bool "FLAT"
+	select BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB
+	depends on BR2_bfin
+endchoice

Of course, this might be extended later on if we enable FLAT support on
other architectures. But for now, it ensures that users can't make an
invalid choice (like chose FDPIC on ARM).

Thanks!

Maybe some help text would also be nice for each choice.

Thanks,

No problem.
