After getting the example in kenerl example appendix working I discovered
much that was wrong in this overview. The overview attempts to generalize
all the situations for kernel modification. These include code changes,
configuration changes, and the addition of new recipes. It also includes
the situation where a developer wants to gather all the changes into a
separate layer for distribution and for when they want to push them up
the tree.

There are some issues with the fact that the build process parses
all kernel .bbappend files whether they are used or not during the
build process. I added an extra build configuration note regarding
editing the .bbappend file. I noted that you either have to edit
every .bbappend file and comment out the COMPATIBLE_MACHINE statement
or simply remove all the kernel recipe append files except the one
you are interested in.

This setup should do it for those that want to modify the kernel and
not have to download source files from the upstream everytime they
make a change.
