Add basic support for the Blackfin architecture

For uClibc, the name of the Blackfin architecture is 'bfin'. Actually,
the naming of the architecture is quite messy: for toolchain tuples
and uClibc, it's bfin, but for the kernel, it's blackfin. We've
arbitraly choosen to name it "blackfin" in Crosstool-NG.

Add Blackfin-related uClibc patch to fix a build failure related to
fork() being used in unistd/daemon.c.

Yann E. MORIN:
Apply the patch to the kernel/linux build script to use 'linux'
in the noMMU tuples. See:

     1 # Bare metal config options
     2 
     3 config KERNEL_bare_metal
     4     select BARE_METAL
     5     help
     6       'Bare metal' refers to those programs that run without any kernel.

     8       You probably want to say 'y' here if you plan to use your compiler
     9       to build bootloaders. It is not yet suitable to build Linux kernels,
    10       though, because the APCI stuff relies on the target C library headers
    11       being available?!?!...
