Log Message:
Initial version of evbmips kernel configuration files documentation.
The goal is to give a better understanding which hardware they represent
and how to build them. Also not to lose this information over the years.

Loosely based on a README.evbarm, however has additional notes on building
targets. The file is not final, some discussion came up about the need of
*32 kernel configs. simon is planning to review.

+Configuration file notes:
+* "INSALL_*"	installation kernel configuration files.
+		(typically enables hooks for initializing the root memory-disk).
+* "*.MP"	configuration files with the multiprocessor support enabled.
+* "*32"		N32 ABI kernel configuration files
+		(can be built using evbmips64-* targets).
+Building target notes:
+* "*-el"	represent targets for building little-endian kernels.
+* "*-eb"	represent targets for building big-endian kernels.
+* "evbmips64-*"	represent targets for building 64-bit (or N32 ABI) kernels and
+		mixed n32 (mostly)/n64 userland. 
+* "evbmipsn64*"	represent targets for building fully N64 ABI kernels and
+		userland.
+Other notes:
+64-bit kernels can be built using N32 or N64 ABIs; they will run with a 64-bit
+kernel address space regardless of the ABI.
