add linux-nokia-n900 and remove linux-postmarketos-stable

The linux-nokia-n900 package is based on the linux-postmarketos-stable, same kernel version and same config.

I've removed a lot of unnecessary code for multiple architecture and -dev subpackage (I don't think somebody ever used it on the N900).

I've also added 2 patches from the maemo leste kernel:

• 0001-ARM-dts-n900-increase-charge-current-limit-to-950mA.patch
• 0002-ARM-dts-n900-remove-rx51-battery.patch

And added a patch to ignore the battery inaccurate flag, which indicates that the battery is not calibrated (requires full charge -> empty cycle to calibrate)

• 0003-power-supply-bq27xxx_battery-ignore-inaccurate-flag.patch

The battery driver in the original 2.6 kernel used in the Maemo Freemantle did not have this flag and the battery percentage wasn't that inaccurate.

Closes #464 (closed)

While testing the kernel sometimes doesn't boot and just remains with a black screen.

I've changed how the kernel is built, and I'm wondering if the cause might be that I removed the CFLAGS_MODULE=-fno-pic.

Or maybe because I removed the HOSTCC variables?

HOSTCC="${CC:-gcc}"
HOSTCC="${HOSTCC#${CROSS_COMPILE}}"

Or maybe my patch of the bq27xxx_battery driver?

Any idea?

ps: booting in original Maemo 5 works and shows the battery is 65%

edit: connecting the usb cable I'm able to connect with ssh

edit2: the switch on the right side of the phone actually enabled the display backlight and everything is fine. But why it was black during the boot? It keeps the last value from the reboot?
