67883d1484 bcm4908: build flashable & bootable firmware images
BCM4908 bootloader requires firmware with JFFS2 image containing:
1. cferam.000
2. 94908.dtb
3. vmlinux.lz
4. device custom files

cferam.000 can be obtained from the bcm63xx-cfe repository.
device custom files are stored in images dir.

85c49441dd bcm4908: initial work on the Broadcom BCM4908 target
BCM4906, BCM4908 and BCM49408 are SoCs with 64 bit ARMv8 B53 CPUs.
Upstream Linux is slowly getting support for that SoCs family so it
makes sense to add target for it.

This prepares initial support for:

1. Asus GT-AC5300
BCM4908 based device (4 CPUs) with 1024 MiB RAM, NAND, 8 LAN ports.

2. Netgear R8000P
BCM4906 based device (2 CPUs) with 512 MiB RAM, NAND, 4 LAN ports.

Flashing info will come later as we learn how to generate proper images.

It isn't usable yet (it only produces a bootable kernel) so "source-only"
is used.
