Alexandre Bard 9a4ce1d870 linux-nrsw: Use linux-yocto as a base
The are several advantages to use the yocto recipe as base:

- The checkout of the git repo is done differently: it makes the
  do_fetch task faster than it would be with the default behavior which
  is to clone the entire repository.

- It is possible to share part of the build process by defining the
  KMACHINE variable: All machines with the same KMACHINE value will
  share (at least part of) the build environment, speeding up compile
  time.

- It is possible to conditionally add configs through the
  KERNEL_FEATURES variable, without needing to rebuild from scratch when
  changing the features.

The new recipe also directly takes advantage of the KERNEL_FEATURES to
add support for init ram disks.

A another change happening with this commit is the kernel modules to
autoload being defined in a single file and (as the defconfig) depend on
the SOC_FAMILY variable (sitara or armada).
