[meta-freescale] [meta-fsl-ppc][PATCH][v2] linux: add support for kernel fragmentation

>I think you mean to say 'add support for kernel configuration fragments', not 'kernel fragmentation'.  However, perhaps stating that you are adding support for scc description files would be more appropriate.
[Zongchun] Thanks for your comments. I will improve the description of this patch.

>I'm wondering why you are adding this abstraction to the base configuration.  Is this the start of further customization following the linux-yocto model as described in the Yocto Project Linux Kernel Development Manual?  My impression of scc files is that they are useful for describing various features and BSPs.  They only seem to make sense if multiple scc files exist and can be chosen for various reasons.
[Zongchun] Yes. this patch is a start of further customization following the linux-yocto model. I assume that 'base.scc' is a common scc file used by all the features. Different features can be
Defined by different scc files. All the feature scc files can use this base configuration by including base.scc file.

>This single, particular scc file just describes the base kernel, so I'm wondering why it's being added now & if multiple scc files are going to follow for linux-qoriq.  If not, I think it just adds unneeded abstraction / complexity.
[Zongchun] we will add more fearute scc files in future.
