[yocto] Using vendo kernel with Yocto

[João Henrique Freitas]

Hello, just a report

As my vendor never will release patch to a recent kernel and our
applications needs some recent fetures found in a recent kernel. I decided
to make the patchs by myself.

I missed one week reading datasheet, git log, studying the old
implementation made by Mindspeed  and so on.

Now the kernel 3.4.18 boot and runs in our board using yocto 1.3. Of course
I have learned a lot of things.

Maybe some adjusts will be need to do. However I am very happy to track
Yocto project with Mindspeed hardware. This is going to speedup the release
cicles and  tools of our products.

Thanks.
