[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] toolchain-external-custom: allow specifying relative path to binaries

[Yann E. MORIN]

Calin, All,

On 2018-03-23 23:40 +0200, Calin Crisan spake thusly:
> There are cases where a downloaded toolchain doesn't have its binaries
> placed directly in a "bin" subfolder (where BuildRoot currently looks
> for them).
> 
> A common example is the official Raspberry Pi Toolchain
> (https://github.com/raspberrypi/tools), which has its binaries in
> "arm-bcm2708/arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin".
> 
> This commit introduces BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_BIN_PATH that defaults
> to "bin" and can be changed as needed.

Indentation is incorrect: it should be a leading TAB for option, and a
leading TAB and two spaces for the help text.

See:
    https://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#writing-rules-config-in

Otherwise, looks sensible to me...
