The series looks fine to me (at least patch 1 and 3). To allow us
flexibility in the
future, I'll leave qemuarm out of the qemuarma15 machine .scc file ..
and instead
can do a patch that adds:

KMACHINE_qemuarm ?= "qemuarma15"

to linux-yocto_* in the master branch.

That will have the same end result, if you build qemuarm, the tools will go look
for the qemuarma15 match and will find your new definitions for the
kernel build.

That way, I can backport future config changes to older release branches and
they won't change how the old qemuarm works.

When we get to the fall release, I can drop the KMACHINE mapping, and make
the change to the kernel meta data directly.

I'll do up a queue with that in it shortly.

Cheers,

Bruce
