It works, but its really ugly (as it means that the buildtools directory gets
install to the hostapp directory under the build).  I could move that of course,
but at this point, you are asking me to remove a working makefile to replace it
with another makefile that, by all rights should have been removed as part of
commit efa2084a840fb83fd9be83adca57e5f23d3fa9fe:

    scripts: remove useless build tools
    
    test-framework.sh is an old script to check building of some dependencies.
    testhost is an old app used to check HOSTCC.
    
    Let's clean the scripts directory.

Here you removed the only user of rte.hostapp.mk, but neglected to remove
hostapp.mk itself.  I really fail to see why making me rework my current
makefile setup, that matches the purpose of the tool is a superior solution to
just getting rid of the unused makefile thats there right now.

Then, I'm just not going to enumerate the type of driver at all, I'll remove
that attribute entirely.  But I really don't like to write code for things that
are 'predictive'.

No, If you're removing the types, and you're sure of that, I'm just going to
remove the description entirely.  If you're unsure about exactly whats going to
happen, we should reflect the state of the build now, and make the appropriate
change when it lands.

It depends on exactly how its built, but that would be a common use, yes.

So, we've had this discussion before :).  Its really not fair to ask anyone to
write code based on predictive changes.  If theres some patch out there thats
planning on making a change, we can't be expected to write with it in mind.  If
you want people to use it, then get it merged.  I understand thats not really
the issue here, and I'm making the change because you're right, we should avoid
duplicating the structures if we can, but please understand that its impossible
to write for change thats predicted to come at a later date.

Yup, your right, modifo did get orphaned when I was doing previous cleanup, and
can be removed.

Then we're not going to agree about this :).  I'll re-iterate my stance.  Moving to
use rte.hotapp.mk, causes alot more work for me, makes the use of the tool
somewhat uglier, and by all rights shouldn't be there at all, due to your
previously mentioned commit. It just makes more sense to use the buildtools
makefile and remove the vesitgial rte.hostapp.mk makefile.
