[Buildroot] AVR32 now requires setting the kernel binary format

[Buildroot] AVR32 now requires setting the kernel binary format

[Thiago A. Corrêa]

Hi,

  Not sure if this is intended, but now to build the AVR32 one has to
set the kernel format in menuconfig, since the default changed from
uImage to zImage and the AVR32 linux fails to build zImage with
unknown target.

  Perhaps some variable missing in target/devices/Atmel

Cheers,

Also, the build stops after the kernel is compiled, as it's looking it
at the wrong place:

  OBJCOPY arch/avr32/boot/images/vmlinux.bin
  GZIP    arch/avr32/boot/images/vmlinux.gz

This one I don't know where to fix :(
