[yocto] in kernel manual, should pick another example for KMACHINE

  in section 3.2 of the kernel dev manual, there is a discussion of
KMACHINE and how it is *typically* set to the same value as MACHINE,
but there are cases where that might not be true; however, the example
used to demonstrate this -- emenlow and emenlow-noemgd -- doesn't seem
appropriate as there is no "emenlow" machine definition file anymore
in meta-intel. AFAICT, all of those non-noemgd machine definitions are
gone.

  in all the layers i have checked out, the only layer where i see
KMACHINE covering a number of MACHINE values is meta-xilinx
(zynq-based machines). it sounds picky but, when demonstrating some
concept, i think it's important that examples used actually exist in
the code base in case people want to check.
