The intent of this patch is to preserve the use of the stable kernel once a 
later, but unstable, kernel recipe is introduced.  With this patch I also sent a 
patch for 3.10.17_beta for people to start playing with on Wandboard.  I 
wouldn't want that to be the preferred version, but if developers want to start 
with it then they can do so by uncommenting the line in the machine/conf file.
