Porting Genode to the ZedBoard

[Johannes Schlatow]

Hi Jack,

me and my colleagues already contributed a basic Zynq-support [1] to Genode, which recently made it into the current staging branch. The NIC support will follow soon [2].

In addition to that, we are internally using the Parallella and the Zedboard. You can find the necessary modifications in the 'zynq-boards' branch of my github fork of Genode [3].
