This is the second version of the series adding basic support for Altera's Nios-II architecture.
Only basic support added so far, but more patches will hopefully follow.

Nice!

Once this series is committed, I'll add NIOS-II to the autobuilders. Are you willing to look at the resulting package build failures?

I had a quick look, and unfortunately, there is no support for NIOS-II in libffi. This means that anything that uses libglib or python cannot be built for NIOS-II. This is a bit annoying as adding a 'depends on !BR2_nios2' on all reverse dependencies of libglib is a big pain.

Unfortunately, a quick google search doesn't even show the start of an effort to add NIOS-II support to libffi, so I guess we'll have to live with that.

Thomas
