This tool only works on python 2 (python 2.6 or lator).
Change the shebang to make sure the script is run by python 2
and clearly say the supported version in the comment block.

I guess some developers are already getting sick of this tool
because it generally takes a few minites to generate the boards.cfg
on a reasonable computer.
The idea popped up on my mind was to skip Makefiles and
to run script/kconfig/conf directly.
This tool should become about 4 times faster.
You might still not be satisfied, but better than doing nothing.

It looks silly to regenerate the boards.cfg even when it is
already up to date.
The tool should exit with doing nothing if the boards.cfg is newer
than any of defconfig, Kconfig and MAINTAINERS files.
Specify -f (--force) option to get the boards.cfg regenerated
regardless its time stamp.

This tool deletes the incomplete boards.cfg
if it encounters an error or is is terminated by the user.
I notice some problems even though they rarely happen.
[1] The boards.cfg is removed if the program is terminated
during __gen_boards_cfg() function but before boards.cfg
is actually touched. In this case, the previous boards.cfg
should be kept as it is.
[2] If an error occurs while deleting the incomplete boards.cfg,
the program throws another exception. This hides the privious
exception and we will not be able to know the real cause.

When an error occurs or the program is terminated by the user
on the way, the destructer __del__ of class Slot is invoked and
the work directories are removed.
We have to make sure there are no subprocesses (in this case,
"make O=<work_dir> ...") using the work directories before
removing them. Otherwise the subprocess spits a bunch of error
messages possibly causing more problems. Perhaps some users
may get upset to see too many error messages.

The tools/genboardscfg.py expects all the Kconfig and defconfig are
written correctly. Imagine someone accidentally has broken a board.
Error-out just for one broken board is annoying for the other
developers. Let the tool skip insane boards and continue processing.

tools/genboardscfg.py expects all the boards have MAINTAINERS.
If someone adds a new board but misses to add its MAINTAINERS file,
tools/genboardscfg.py fails to generate the boards.cfg file.
It is annoying for the other developers.
This commit allows tools/genboardscfg.py to display warning messages
and continue processing even if some MAINTAINERS files are missing
or have broken formats.

Kconfig in U-Boot creates a temporary file configs/.tmp_defconfig
during processing "make <board>_defconfig". The temporary file
might be left over for some reasons.
Just in case, tools/genboardscfg.py should make sure to
not read such garbage files.

This patch fixes a minor problem:
If a block without "F: configs/*_defconfig" is followed by another
block with "F: configs/*_defconfig", the maintainers from the
former block are squashed into the latter.

The existing terminalsize detection raised an exception on build
server. Just removes the exception. This also deactivates the
progress indicator.
Remove a trainling whitespace.

Prior to Kconfig, the CPU field of boards.cfg could optionally have
":SPLCPU", like "armv7:arm720t".
(Actually this syntax was only used for Tegra platform.)
Now it is not necessary at all because CPU is defined by
CONFIG_SYS_CPU in Kconfig.
For Tegra platform, the Kconfig option is described as follows:
config SYS_CPU
string
default "arm720t" if SPL_BUILD
default "armv7" if !SPL_BUILD

In Python, sys.exit() function can also take an object other
than an integer.
If an integer is given to the argument, Python exits with the return
code of it. If a non-integer argument is given, Python outputs it
to stderr and exits with the return code of 1.
That means,
print >> sys.stderr, "Blah Blah"
sys.exit(1)
is equivalent to
sys.exit("Blah Blah")
The latter is a useful shorthand.
Note:
Some error messages in Buildman and Patman were output to stdout.
But they should go to stderr. They are also fixed by this commit.
This is a nice side effect.

Now the primary data for each board is in Kconfig, defconfig and
MAINTAINERS.
It is true boards.cfg is needed for MAKEALL and buildman and might be
useful to brouse all the supported boards in a single database.
But it would be painful to maintain the boards.cfg in sync.
So, this is the solution.
Add a tool to generate the equivalent boards.cfg file based on
the latest Kconfig, defconfig and MAINTAINERS.
We can keep all the functions of MAKEALL and buildman with it.
The best thing would be to change MAKEALL and buildman for not
depending on boards.cfg in the future, but it would take some time.
