I wish you would have done a RFC for this before committing as I would
have rejected it. You are adding more complexity and more configuration
options to the system. If people want to do something special with their
Linux kernel, they should handle it in their own target specific
directory and override the variables LINUX_HEADERS_VERSION, LINUX26_DIR,
LINUX26_KCONFIG, LINUX26_BINLOC, etc. Please revert this patch. Also,
even if it were to stay in, you provided no documentation again.

I have no problem making the Linux configuration a part of the target/device/Atmel directory,
but then the target/linux needs to be disabled if an Atmel chip is selected
in order to avoid conflicts.
I do have a problem with having people editing configuration files
which can easily be handled by the config system.

The idea was basically to let people try this out,
and there was never any plan to keep this for a long time.
I expect that it will be gone within a week or so.

I may be missing something, but I do not see that there is a lot of
documentation on the separate configuration items.
The only thing available is docs/buildroot.html which currently
does not even mention how to build linux.
