Hi Ravi,

Trying to factorize the common code goes in the good direction.

However I'm wondering if "common" is the proper place. Initially,
the common directory was for code common to linuxapp and baremetal.
Now that baremetal does not exist anymore, a lot of code is common
to the 2 OSes that are supported (linux and FreeBSD).

What about moving this code in "common-posix" instead?
It would let the door open for future ports (Windows? or any
other real time OS? Or back in baremetal?).

Regards,
Olivier
