board: add support for chiliBoard
Board support package includes: * Buildroot defconfig * Mainline Linux kernel v4.9.6 * Mainline U-Boot (current HEAD revision is used, as board support patches are not in stable release yet) * genimage config to create sdcard image * Board readme.txt [Peter: use http:// instead of git:// for u-boot] Signed-off-by: Marcin Niestroj <m.niestroj@grinn-global.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <peter@korsgaard.com>

+**********
+
+Build
+=====
+
+First, configure Buildroot for your chiliBoard:
+
+ make grinn_chiliboard_defconfig
+
+Build image:
+
+ make
+
+After building you should get a tree like this:
+
+ output/images/
+ ├── am335x-chiliboard.dtb
+ ├── boot.vfat
+ ├── MLO
+ ├── rootfs.ext2
+ ├── rootfs.ext4
+ ├── rootfs.tar
+ ├── sdcard.img
+ ├── u-boot.img
+ └── zImage
+
+Create a bootable microSD card
+==============================
+
+Buildroot prepares a bootable microSD card image "sdcard.img" in output/images/
+directory, To flash SD card just run the following command:
+
+ sudo dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/<sd_card> bs=1M
+
+where <sd_card> can be sdX or mmcblkX
+
+*** WARNING! This will destroy all contents of device you specify! ***
+
+Boot chiliBoard
+===============
+
+- insert the microSD card in the microSD slot of the board;
+- plug micro USB cable to provide power and console interface
+- use terminal emulator with 115200 bps, 8n1
