[RFC PATCH 0/1] image-live: order bootimg after rootfs

["Guillaume Champagne" <champagne.guillaume.c@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Following 96f47c39f1d17f073243913d524bde84add41d8f (image-live.bbclass:
optional depends when ROOTFS empty), Ferry noticed that the patch doesn't work
correctly if the image's work directory is empty since IMGDEPLOYDIR may not
exist when do_bootimg runs.

The following patch fixes this by ordering do_bootimg after do_rootfs, since
IMGDEPLOYDIR is created and cleaned before do_rootfs runs (vardeps cleandir).
This shouldn't change the build order for recipes that use a ROOTFS, since
do_bootimg would already be ordered after do_rootfs via the dependency on
do_image_{FS_TYPE}.

I'm sending this as an RFC to get the confirmation that this patch is a right
way to approach the issue. Furthermore, I feel like if there was a way to
entierly skip do_rootfs, that could be great since it doesn't even have to run
if the final image doesn't include that rootfs.

Thanks,
Guillaume
