One step at a time?
No seriously, it is hard to know without knowing what that layer
does. You will need to have a look at everything it does and add
packages and rootfs overlays / post-build scripts to do the same thing
in Buildroot.

Thank you! I understand that the vendor specific layers have their own
packages and customizations.
I was looking for some generic guidelines to perform this. (Assuming that
all the packages are open source)
It would be great if buildroot documentation will provide some guidelines
to perform the porting of the Yocto layers to Buildroot.
Thanks!

It would be an interesting embedded conference presentation :-)

Well, besides the suggestions I provided already, I don't really know
what else I can tell. In Buildroot, the content of the rootfs comes from
packages, rootfs overlays and post-build scripts, so you need to match
the things that the yocto layer does to these 3 things.

But the Buildroot developers may not be Yocto experts (I'm certainly
not), so I am not sure we are the best people to provide a 1-to-1
mapping between yocto concepts and the Buildroot equivalent.
But if you do, I don't see why we couldn't carry such a cheat sheet in
the manual.

Not exactly what you are asking, but these might help you anyway:
