This code component is used to add Zephyr support on iMX7 processors,
exclusively on Cortex M4 core, and to speed up the development process
it was decided to have it based on NXP FreeRTOS BSP implementation.
The source code was imported from the following folders:
FreeRTOS_BSP_1.0.1_iMX7D/platform/drivers
FreeRTOS_BSP_1.0.1_iMX7D/platform/devices
This source code depends on headers and sources from zephyr:
ext/hal/cmsis
Origin: iMX7D NXP FreeRTOS BSP Peripheral Driver
License: BSD 3-Clause

commit: no commit hash
Purpose: The peripheral driver wraps the H/W for i.MX7 M4 core

Introducing CMake is an important step in a larger effort to make
Zephyr easy to use for application developers working on different
platforms with different development environment needs.
Simplified, this change retains Kconfig as-is, and replaces all
Makefiles with CMakeLists.txt. The DSL-like Make language that KBuild
offers is replaced by a set of CMake extentions. These extentions have
either provided simple one-to-one translations of KBuild features or
introduced new concepts that replace KBuild concepts.
This is a breaking change for existing test infrastructure and build
scripts that are maintained out-of-tree. But for FW itself, no porting
should be necessary.
For users that just want to continue their work with minimal
disruption the following should suffice:
Install CMake 3.8.2+
Port any out-of-tree Makefiles to CMake.
Learn the absolute minimum about the new command line interface:
$ cd samples/hello_world
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DBOARD=nrf52_pca10040 ..
$ cd build
$ make
