[OE-core] isn't the check for a matching "meta" branch a bit too forgiving?

[Robert P. J. Day]

  in kernel-yocto.bbclass, in do_kernel_checkout(), isn't this check:

  git branch -a | grep -q ${KMETA}   <-- this check
  if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
          echo "ERROR. The branch '${KMETA}' is required and was not"
          echo "found. Ensure that the SRC_URI points to a valid linux-yocto"
          ... snip ...

for now, as long as KMETA always equals "meta", it's fine, but won't
that "grep" also erroneously match longer strings of which ${KMETA} is
simply a substring?

  at the very least, shouldn't that be "grep -qw ${KMETA}"?
