Emmanuel Vadot 8b560bb51c Update the u-boot-rpi2 port to use the u-boot-master port.
This also bring u-boot to version 2017.09 and the firmware files are no
longer in this port but in sysutils/rpi-firmware.
Also I'm stepping in as maintainer.

Tested On: RPI2v1.1, RPI2v1.2

U-Boot loader for Raspberry Pi 2
To install this bootloader, copy u-boot.bin in the share/u-boot/u-boot-rpi
directory to the first partition, formatted as FAT16 or FAT32, on an SD card.
You will also need the firmware files from the rpi-firmware package.
This version is patched so that:
* ELF and API features are enabled.
* The distroboot command knows how to load FreeBSD loader(8)
* By default, it loads ubldr.bin (PIE) from file ubldr.bin on the FAT
partition to address ${kernel_addr_r}, and launches it. If ubldr.bin is
not found, it falls back on ubldr
