The Cortex-M4 does not have an MMU.  The Yocto Project system, currently, only
supports MMU based architectures.

If Linux is a requirement for you, you will need to find a non-MMU based uClinux
system to work with.

Otherwise there are a number of other embedded OSs for MMU-less targets that may
be more appropriate to the memory and system constraints of the M series CPUs.
