How to use vc4 drm/mesa driver

Since vc4 build is still unstable & slow (but working), it's not documented on the README

After 'repo sync' step of https://github.com/peyo-hd/local_manifests, do 'git checkout vc4' on following sources.

• kernel/rpi
• external/mesa3d
• hardware/drm_gralloc
• device/brcm/rpi2

Then follow README of https://github.com/peyo-hd/device_brcm_rpi2

For vc4 original work of Eric Anholt, refer to http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/VC4 And his github : https://github.com/anholt
