It is finally possible to boot LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 from the mainline
Linux kernel. This patch updates the defconfg to use the mainline kernel
instead of the custom ev3dev kernel.

This adds a script to create SD card and flash images for LEGO MINDSTORMS
EV3 using the genimage tool.
The default kernel config had to be modified to add support for squashfs
and to add a ram disk.

Bump kernel revision used by lego_ev3_defconfig to the latest tag from
ev3dev, as suggested by Peter. This is a 4.4 series kernel, which has the
added benefit of not necessitating a specific gcc to boot.
We need a patch to create an empty drivers/lego/Kconfig file for the build
to succeed though, as the ev3dev kernel normally expects a drivers tree to
be checked out there.

Add initial support for the Lego Mindstorms EV3 programmable brick.
The Lego Mindstorms EV3 brick comprises a Texas Instruments AM1808 SoC, with
an ARM 926EJ-S main processor running at 300 MHz.

This configuration uses the Linux kernel of the ev3dev project.

More info is available in the board/lego/ev3/readme.txt file, shamelessly
documented in the same way as the SoCkit folks did.
