Same opinion here. The feature ? put /usr in one filesystem and the rest
in another filesystem ? is very, very specific. Unless we find a way to
make it more generally useful, I don't think this belongs to Buildroot.

We could imagine that the user can give a text file saying which
file/directory should go in which filesystem, so that parts could be
put into a read-only filesystem and other parts into a read/write
filesystem. But I'm not sure how this would work.
