Agreed, that it has no place in oe-core anymore, but not sure if we can
keep
CONFIG_MANAGER_OPTION +=
"${@['--disable-config-hal','--enable-config-hal',''][bb.data.getVar('DISTRO_XORG_CONFIG_MANAGER',d)
in ['hal']]}"

in xserver-xorg or we'll force averybody with hal in his layer to
.bbappend xserver-xorg too.
