This makes the linux-raspberrypi_dev recipe more flexible by allowing
the kernel branch to be overridden in local.conf.

The development branches of linux-raspberrypi are rebased frequently. To
avoid fetch failures caused by out-of-date git hashes we need to use
AUTOREV.
LINUX_VERSION may need to be overridden in local.conf to match the
upstream version.

Currently the firmware is installed but kernel fails to load it
due this .txt file missing in the firmware directory and it ends
up with wifi/bluetooth i/f not being initialized. The error is
also in dmesg
[ 3.120991] usbcore: registered new interface driver brcmfmac
[ 3.148240] brcmfmac mmc1:0001:1: Direct firmware load for brcm/brcmfmac43430-sdio.txt failed with error -2
After applying this patch now ifconfig -a can list wlan0 interface
successfully.

The linux-raspberrypi 4.1 recipe has been broken for a while, probably since
09b76a43f6. It should now be safe to drop this
version.

DISTRO_TYPE doesn't seem to be set anywhere in OE/poky. This causes
CMDLINE_DEBUG to default to "debug" which is very noisy. This is
especially true when building a systemd based system, as systemd
also looks at the kernel commandline to set the debug level.
Such a system is nearly unuseable from the serial console due
to the amount of data logged by systemd.

The rpi-4.8.y branch of git://github.com/raspberrypi/linux.git was rebased,
losing any previous commit hashes. This latest update doesn't include the
raspberry pi patches for 4.8.6, but the upstream patches are included starting
with 4.8.11.

The NO_GENERIC_LICENSE map value for Firmware-broadcom_brcm80211 needs
to have the full path to LICENSE.broadcom_brcm80211 from the URL
instead of just the filename.
Fixes the following warning building the linux-firmware recipe:

Kernel 4.4.6+ on RaspberryPi support .dtbo files for overlays, instead of .dtb.
Patch the kernel, which has faulty rules to generate .dtbo the way yocto does

Recent versions of the Raspberry Pi firmware can directly handle kernel images
which use device tree. The modifications made by rpi-mkimage are no longer
needed.
