Thomas Petazzoni 8f3f28102d busybox: fix build on SPARC and SPARC64
Since we introduced the support for building Busybox as individual
binaries, Busybox started failing to build on SPARC/SPARC64 with this
feature enabled:

appletlib.c:(.text.find_applet_by_name+0x14): relocation truncated to fit: R_SPARC_GOT13 against symbol `applet_nameofs' defined in .rodata.applet_nameofs section in libbb/lib.a(appletlib.o)
appletlib.c:(.text.find_applet_by_name+0x18): relocation truncated to fit: R_SPARC_GOT13 against symbol `applet_names' defined in .rodata.applet_names section in libbb/lib.a(appletlib.o)
[...]

This commit adds two patches to Busybox to fix this issue, by adding
-fPIC to CFLAGS when building on SPARC/SPARC64. The patches have been
submitted upstream.

Fixes:

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
