[bitbake-devel] [PATCH 1/1] lib/bb/cooker.py: fix for BBFILE_PATTERN = ""

[Robert Yang]

There would be error when BBFILE_PATTERN = None:
  BBFILE_PATTERN_foo not defined

This is the correct behaviour, but when the layer sets BBFILE_PATTERN = "",
it would match all the remaining recipes, and cause "No bb files matched BBFILE_PATTERN"
warnings for all the layers which behind it.

When a layer sets BBFILE_PATTERN = "" (for example, a layer only
provides git repos and source tarballs), now it means has no recipes.
This is different from BBFILE_PATTERN_IGNORE_EMPTY, the later one means
that it *may* not have any recipes.
