Bruce Ashfield 095175595d kernel-yocto: split meta data gathering into patch and config phases
do_kernel_metadata gathers and sanitizes the meta-data that is used
in later steps of the kernel-yocto build process. The processing
takes the form of configuration and patch gathering.

The current single pass of both config and patch gathering means
that patches can't modify in-tree configuration elements (although
this makes tracing configuration changes harder, it is a valid
workflow).

We can divide the routine into a patch and configuration phase, and
call the config variant after patching is done. This keeps the
common parts of the gahering intact, but allows us flexibilty in
when the stages happen.

QEMU Emulation Targets
======================

To simplify development, the build system supports building images to
work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Several architectures
are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants:

  * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64)
  * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64)
  * PowerPC (qemuppc only)
  * MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64)

Use of the QEMU images is covered in the Yocto Project Reference Manual.
The appropriate MACHINE variable value corresponding to the target is given
in brackets.
