s> * For patches stored in the package directory, if

s> * For patches stored in the global patches directory, if
s> $(GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR)/<pkg>/<version>/ does exist, apply
s> $(GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR)/<pkg>/<version>/*.patch, otherwise, apply
s> $(GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR)/<pkg>/*.patch
s> This patch adds the new BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR configuration item, and reworks
s> the generic package infrastructure to implement the new patch logic.
Committed with the minor doc nits pointed out by Thomas fixed, thanks!
