The 'v3.10/master' master branch has been updated with the latest
general availability (GA) release from FSL, but the user-space is not
ready yet, so using the new kernel the build is broken:

Needing to set the branch where a specific SHA1 revision is contained is
a unnecessary constraint that can be bypassed setting 'nobranch=1' in
the SRC_URI.
We do that for all the external repos (GitHub) plus the internal ones
for the im-xbootlets and the atheros kernel module (as those two repos
are stable enough and we are not developing actively on them).
For U-Boot and Linux we keep the SRCBRANCH framework for internal repos
as this is needed for the AUTOREV yocto feature.

Starting with Yocto 1.6 there is a need to configure in which branch a
specific SHA1 revision is included. We need a framework to set such
branches both for internal git repos and for external ones (Github).
If the branch is not specified in the SRC_URI, the do_fetch task may
fail even though the SHA1 revision exists in the repository.

PR was based on meta-fsl-arm's 'linux-imx.inc' INC_PR, but this was
removed after Dora, so we need to remove PR from our kernel recipes to
avoid a bitbake parser error:

linux-dey.inc is a copy of meta-fsl-arm's linux-imx recipe file, so
instead of copying the whole recipe just use that (including the file)
and code the differences.
While on it, add RDEPENDS_kernel-base="" to remove the dependence of the
rootfs image recipes on the linux image. We don't need/use the kernel
image in the rootfs as we load it from a different partition. This makes
rootfs images a bit smaller.

bitbake git's fetcher uses 'ls-remote' to get the branch revision to
checkout. If the repository has two branches ending equally the 'git
ls-remote' just picks the first one regardless of that being the correct
one.
In our case we were bitten by this bug because our git repo has:
...sha1-revision... refs/heads/android/v3.10/master
...sha1-revision... refs/heads/v3.10/master
and the fetcher was using the android branch instead of linux's
v3.10/master.
A patch has been sent upstream but while that gets applied to Dora
maintenance branch the workaround here is to set the absolute path in
the kernel's bitbake recipe.

The do_update_dts function was hardcoded for ccardimx28js. We need to
make it mxs specific so the recipe can be used for other platforms that
do not share the same device tree configuration (for example the
upcoming ccimx6js)

There seems to be a race condition in the load of the 'cfg80211' and
'ath6kl_sdio' modules. If we try to load the atheros module before the
cfg80211 is settled down, the driver crash.
The workaround is just separate the load of both modules in two separate
'modprobe' commands and add a small delay between them.

The Linux kernel revision was splitted from main bitbake recipe to its
own linux-dey-rev file so that file could be used for linux-headers
recipe to build the toolchain using custom kernel headers (from our
repository).
That is not the recommended way to build a toolchain:
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=babbf7a46acaefd9b36031483cafce053f607e66
and we are not using our kernel headers to build the toolchain anymore,
so just melt the linux-dey-rev files into the linux-dey bitbake recipes
for cleanness and easier maintenance.

The wireless module occasionally fails to load in kernel v3.10.
If that is the case, unload the driver and load it again (up to
five retries).
Notes:
- Only the ath6kl_sdio module needs to be unloaded and reloaded.
- The chip is not issued a power cycle via CHIP_PWD_L because
this demonstrated to cause failure, instead of improving
behaviour.
- The 2-seconds sleep after unloading the driver is a security
measure to avoid other problems seen during test cycle.
