Suggestions:

* Mesa: A simple append with

PACKAGECONFIG_append_rpi += " gallium"
GALLIUMDRIVERS_rpi = "vc4"

would do. If you check mesa.inc in oe-core others (intel) do similar
(we might have to wait for a more recent mesa expected in September).

* kernel: have different name e.g linux-raspberrypi-vc4

The selection is done in this layer by changing default providers. In
a first step this could be done manually - aided by a helpful comment.
