[yocto-builds] [poky] Yocto kernel compilation issues

[srinivasan]

"inherit kernel" doesn't allow to add new kernels for the very first to
yocto build system for example adding the below kernel



*- The kernel used would be the Linux-rt-devel v4.14.39 from the git repo
in https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git/
<https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git/>*

Because I tried adding the above new kernel for the first time using
"inherit kernel", and ended with number of issues

And I hope, "inherit kernel" works only for yocto based linux kernels that
is already available.

Could you please guide me if my understanding is wrong w.r.t the above?
