Busybox 1.10.2

This release includes an upgrade to 1.10.2. This includes new applets like brctl. umount will no longer release loop devices by default but needs -d option. mdev.conf Have got new syntax that obsoletes the subdir_dev helper script. There are many improvements in there, but also rather big changes. Much time have been spent to find a fix the new issues but you should still consider this release as a development release.
