[meta-freescale] [PATCH] mx6q-ba16: Add initial board support

Daiane,

We have been working with a vanilla (4.0+) kernel on some related
platforms, and are considering moving the BA16 platform to this as well. Is
there an effort to move some of the mainline work, such as etna-viv and
related packages, into the meta-freescale layer? Would it be acceptable to
push a 4.0 kernel even if those packages are not supported?

Thank you,

Justin
