Putting:

# CONFIG_PM is not set

in your configuration fragment will turn off an option, the BSP guide has a
"# CONFIG_SMP is not set" as an example for this.

There shouldn't be any race ..  if this doesn't work:

   addtask kernel_checkout before do_patch after do_unpack

Then there are some serious problems with bitbake's task scheduling.

If you didn't do a clean between the two runs, the second is
attempting to continue
the patching and you still aren't getting what you want.

Without seeing what you've ported, or a work in progress I can't say exactly
what is wrong, but your meta data is somehow wrong or completely missing.
Have you set any meta or BSP SRCREVs explicitly ?

Cheers,

Bruce
