PATCH 1/1 board/orangepi: add support for orangepi-lite board

This board is quite similar to orangepi-one board. Instead of ethernet, it has RTL8189FTV SDIO WiFi chip.

Board support package includes the following components:
- mainline u-boot 2017.09
- mainline kernel 4.13.11

+OrangePi Lite
+
+Intro
+=====
+
+This default configuration will allow you to start experimenting with the
+buildroot environment for the OrangePi Lite. With the current configuration
+it will bring-up the board, and allow access through the serial console.
+
+How to build it
+===============
+
+Configure Buildroot:
+
+    $ make orangepi_lite_defconfig
+
+Compile everything and build the SD card image:
+
+    $ make
+
+How to write the SD card
+========================
+
+Once the build process is finished you will have an image called "sdcard.img"
+in the output/images/ directory.
+
+Copy the bootable "sdcard.img" onto an SD card with "dd":
+
+  $ sudo dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX

Committed, thanks.

Board support package includes the following components:
- mainline u-boot 2017.09
- mainline kernel 4.13.11

Any specific reason to not go for u-boot 2017.11 / kernel 4.14.4?

Hi,
thanks for commiting the patch.
Currentl revision of rtl8189fs used by buildroot doesn't compile with kernel 4.14. I'll test newer wifi driver and u-boot revisions during the weekend.

Ok, great - Thanks!
