Maxim Cournoyer b3554820a5 packages/pkg-download.mk: fix file locking over NFS
BSD style locks such as implemented by flock are translated to POSIX
advisory file locks (implemented by the fcntl system call on Linux).  It
is not possible to lock a directory using POSIX advisory file locks.
Hence, the lock strategy used by Buildroot doesn't work when used over
NFS.

Using flock on a simple file works correctly though, so use a '.lock'
file inside the download directory instead. If the lockfile does not
exist, flock will create it (in a race-free fashion).

Tested using NFS v4.2 and Linux 5.4.43.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
