[Buildroot] [PATCH] configs/freescale_t1040d4rdb_defconfig: new board

The T1 QoriQ from NXP has had a few varients of RDB dev boards.
This target is against the latest D4RDB version.  Any of the
other versions before D4RDB (plain RDB), may require backing off
the uboot version to SDK 1.6 and/or adjusting the kernel dtb used.

This board configuration provides an upstream kernel build which
has been verified to boot on target.

The target assumes the user still uses the NXP suggested prebuilts
in the SDK2.0 (last release for PowerPC). If a uboot rebuild is
required, the source for SDK2.0 can be found in the following repo.

http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/ppc/sdk/u-boot.git/tag/?id=fsl-sdk-v2.0-1703

+For the bootloader, NXP has stablized at SDK2.0 (final release). It is
+suggested to download the prebuilt from NXP downloads and follow the
+release notes for reflashing.
+
+To program the kernel and rootfs created by buildroot into the flash. The
+fast way is to tftp transfer the files via one of the network interfaces.
+Make sure your devkit has ipaddr and serverip defined to reach your tftp
+server.
+
+(Assuming the default u-boot env from NXP)
+1. Program the DTB to NOR flash
+
+    => tftpboot $loadaddr t1040d4rdb.dtb; protect off 0xe8800000 +$filesize; erase 0xe8800000 +$filesize; cp.b $loadaddr 0xe8800000 $filesize; protect on 0xe8800000 +$filesize; cmp.b $loadaddr 0xe8800000 $filesize

+2. Program the kernel and rootfs to NOR flash
