Update the yocto hardware reference platform to use the
3.4 kernel by default.
This platform is supported in mainline, so no patch carry
forward or similar is required. Tested via NFS booting the
kernel on real hardware with 3.4.1 and things just work as-is.

Here is the message from the bug 2260:
meta-yocto/conf/machine/beagleboard.conf hardcodes the virtual/xserver
provider, i.e., it includes the following:
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/xserver = "xserver-xorg-lite"
I don't think machine conf is the correct place for selecting what is
essentially a distro feature, but at least this should use the '?='
operator; as is to select a different provider one must provide a
complete beagleboard.conf file.

Machines shouldn't be poking around PREFERRED_PROVIDERS which aren't
machine specific or at least machine safe. Kernels are machine specific
and the xserver is selectable. libx11 and mesa are now really a distro choice
and machine configurations shouldn't be poking around them as it just leads
to corruption, conflicts and confusion.

Closes [YOCTO #1203]
Using the hard floating point abi is incompatible with some binary libaries and
3D support for the Beagleboard. While we do not provide these in poky and
meta-yocto, softfp should remain the default for compatibility reasons.
Provide documentation and a commented assignment to DEFAULT_TUNE instructing
how to enable hardfp, but leave it disabled by default.

Conditionally assign the PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel in the meta-yocto
machine configs to allow the user or other layers to override it. This is
required to use the linux-yocto-rt kernel, for example.

Now that we have a pristine copy of the variables available at launch time
we can use them when looking to inherit the OS's environment.

The MPC8315E has a e300c3 core in it with 'classic' or normal PPC
floating point.
'SPE' floating point is what exists on the e500v2 core.

Try to get closer to the meta-texasinstruments layer which uses
xserver-xorg. Provide a default xorg.conf that matches the one
from meta-texasinstruments.

We need a generic alsa based mechanism that we can use a bbappend to save
default mixer controls per bsp. Until that is ready, this ensures the Audio Out
on the Beagleboard is enabled out of the box.
