From: Vignesh Rajendran <vignesh.rajendran at in.bosch.com>

With recent update in u-boot gitattributes all files are treated regular
text files. This creates problems with special files and repo always
shows uncommited files like below

Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.
Changes not staged for commit:
  (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
  (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)

	modified:   tools/img2brec.sh
	modified:   tools/logos/compulab.bmp
	modified:   tools/logos/denx-comp.bmp
	modified:   tools/logos/toradex.bmp

To fix above problem special files bmp/ttf files are treated as non-text
files in the gitattributes.
