[oe] [PATCH] add xilinx ml507 machine

[Adrian Alonso]

Oops didn't know about the commit guide lines.

Actually I haven't found a guideline my self but some of the things that are
needed to
support xilinx dev board are:

Linux kernel recipe with the ability to specify to build a simpleImage so we
can program the fpga with a Jtag
u-boot recipe to preserve the u-boot elf image this also in early developing
stage for programing the fpga.

All hardware changes performed in the fpga must generate a new device
tree descriptor using Xilinx XPS tool  and should be replaced in the Linux
kernel and u-boot (actually some peripheral address in xparameters.h) to
match with the fpga hardware model.

I'm also going to crate a repository with my hardware project to make
available the hardware model (bitstream) used as target reference; and post
on my blog how I'm trying to use OE with the ml507 target platform.
