I've given this another look and I can get the recipe to parse if I
require linux-raspberrypi.inc before setting PV instead of afterwards.
However do_kernel_configme then gets confused looking for a
"standard/raspberrypi" configuration. It only works if I modify
linux-raspberrypi.inc as per my patch and set PV before requiring that
include file.

I'm starting to think that I might be doing something wrong here - is
there a supported way to build a kernel from an archive instead of a
git repository within OE?

Thanks,
