[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/3] Update Boundary Devices boards support

[Gary Bisson]

Hi all,

This series is mainly about switching to zImage booting as well as updating
the U-Boot and Kernel revisions (still based on the 3.14.28-1.0.0-GA release).

Details about the U-Boot/Kernel revisions update are described in the patch
commit log.

Regards,
Gary
