You could ignore it, or you could fix the linux-xilinx recipe. FYI what it's 
really saying is "GPL" by itself is not really specific enough. The recipe 
should be stating "GPLv2" or "GPLv3" or whichever version the software being 
built is really licensed under. Being that it sounds like it's the Linux 
kernel one would assume "GPLv2" would be the correct answer for the linux-
xilinx recipe.

Cheers,
Paul
