commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=e88704dfba3209b093c7f4767d272972c3b911e1
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

As per the discussion at
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2010-December/040030.html,
remove the bits that forced the IPv6 configuration in the kernel
depending on the toolchain ability to support (or not) IPv6. You may
have a toolchain with IPv6 support but still don't want to have IPv6
in your kernel.

The only parameters we adjust in the kernel configuration are:

 * ARM EABI, since we got a lot of bug reports regarding misconfigured
   kernel compared to the ABI used by userspace applications.

 * initramfs, since its contents are generated by Buildroot itself
