[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 00/13] Add Xorg support for imx6

[Gary Bisson <bisson.gary@gmail.com>]

Jerome,

I've been able to build and test this set of patches on my i.MX6Q
SabreLite board (nitrogen6x defconfig).
Everything is running fine although I only tried:
- Starting X server
- Launching xterm
- Launching Vivante 3D examples

Regarding X, I've used the following configuration:
https://github.com/Freescale/meta-fsl-arm/blob/master/recipes-graphics/xorg-xserver/xserver-xf86-config/mx6/xorg.conf

However I have a few questions regarding the patches:
- 05/13: gpu-viv-bin-mx6q: make fb/x11 choice explicit
  - Not sure to get the use case here. Are people interested in having
  fb libs on a X system?
- 06/13: gpu-viv-bin-mx6q: change output selection mecanism
  - s/mecanism/mechanism
  - Are the symbolic links changes related to the output selection? I would
  have seen this as part of the "04/13: gpu-viv-bin-mx6q: fix GLESv2 support"
  patch

Other than that it looks good. There's one test I haven't done yet: rebuild a
system without X making sure 3D is still working.

Thanks,
Gary
