[OE-core] any easy way to run kern-tools verbosely?

  if there's a way to do this, i'm going to be so embarrassed.
perusing kernel do_patch() routine, which eventually calls:

        if [ -n "${KMETA}" ]; then
                createme_flags="--disable-meta-gen"
        fi
        createme ${createme_flags} ${ARCH} ${kbranch}

  but checking out "createme" in the sysroots/ directory shows:

usage()
{
cat << EOF

    createme [-v] [--disable-meta-gen] --meta=<branch name> <arch> <branch> [defconfig]

      --disable-meta-gen: do not automatically create meta data
                          if not already present in the source tree.
      --meta: the branch name for meta data. default is 'meta'
      -v: verbose processing
      ... snip ...

so "createme" accepts "-v" for verbose, but i see no trivially easy
way to pass that option given the hardcoding of the call in
do_patch().  are you just expected to manually edit createme to do
that?
