[Scott Garman]

As the subject implies, this adds support for booting poky-tiny
images with the runqemu script.

[PATCH 1/1] runqemu: support booting poky-tiny images

[Scott Garman]

Added support for booting poky-tiny images, which do not have block
device support. Note to shut down a running poky-tiny image, you
need to include the -f option to the poweroff command.

This fixes [YOCTO #2612].

you seem to be mixing poky distro with OE-Core here. As a whole the
patch seems like adding support for ramfs based images. If you intend
to just have images specific to poky then this patch
belongs to OE-Core but if you generalize it enough that non
tiny users can also leverage this then it certainly is good
for OE-Core.

should be read as poky

Hi Khem,

I had a hunch I'd get called out for this. :)

I will respin by changing the "tiny" feature to "ramfs". I definitely 
don't want to see the runqemu script diverge between oe-core and poky.
