[Buildroot] Help adding support for Dragonboard 410c

[Mike Frampton]

Hi,

I have been working on adding support for the Qualcomm Dragonboard
410c SBC. I have a working, minimal config.

My config builds an abootimg kernel image, which can be booted via SD
card or USB. The patch adds a package for Qualcomm's BSP for the
device.

This is my first time using Buildroot (coming from OE previously and
this is much more my cup of tea :-).

My patch touches a couple of packages. Should I break each
package-change into a separate patch before posting here?

Cheers,
--Mike Frampton

Glad to hear that you found Buildroot useful for your project!

Yes, we generally like contributions to be split up in several patches
if they touch several areas/packages.

Thanks a lot!
