Agreed for things like dhdcp-server. That is image-level stuff and does
not belong in the BSP. However, linux-firmware-pcie8897 is likely
BSP-specific, but this should be done via the MACHINE_ESSENTIAL...
variables, as is done in other BSPs. grep the layer for linux-firmware-*
and you should find proper examples.
