Adding a .bin driver

[Ronny Nilsson]

Hi
If you only need a single firmware blob you can forget about the 
linux-firmware-1 package and do like this instead:
	mkdir -p nard/platform/<MY-PRODUCT>/fs-template/lib/firmware
	cp rt2870.bin nard/platform/<MY-PRODUCT>/fs-template/lib/firmware

Regarding your build issue; I tried your product recipe and it works fine! But 
since you don't need linux-firmware-1 anymore lets not dig into it.

As an alternative to distclean you can as well try
	make productclean
It will shorten the rebuild cycle by retaining the toolchain.
