[meta-freescale] linux-boundary bbappend misses .cfg

[Sébastien Taylor]

I see, thank you.  Is it typical for processor metas to not use the linux-yocto framework?  There's no mention of this in the documentation so I image it can easily lead to confusion.

Defining an alternate defconfig instead of a .cfg fragment does work as expected.
