Yann> Hello All!
Yann> This series introduces exporting a variable, $(BUILDROOT_CONFIG), that
Yann> contains the fully-qualified path to out .config.
Yann> In some cases, scripts in support/ need to parse our .config (eg. the
Yann> dependency-checking script needs to check the conformity of rxternal
Yann> toolchain features).
Yann> Also, some Makefile fragments (eg. the crosstool-Ng backend) need to
Yann> refer to this config file for make-dependency-checking.
Yann> This was currently done in different ad-hoc manners, and is not scalable.
Yann> I'll also use it later to retrieve the password encoding scheme when
Yann> creating users from packages.
Yann> Changes v1 -> v2:
Yann> - rename BR2_CONFIG_FILE -> BUILDROOT_CONFIG (Arnout)
Yann> - use $(BUILDROOT_CONFIG) in top-level Makefile, too (Arnout)
Committed series, thanks.
