[OE-core] is there a variable where the kernel version is stored?

[Andrei Dinu]

Hello,

I'm having a problem trying to run Bastille. Seems like the kernel 
version has changed from 3.8.11 to 3.8.13 and
in order to run Bastille, i need to patch a file used by the tool to 
check the version of the system. It was previously
patched with linux-yocto-3.8.11 version, but now it has changed to 
linux-yocto-3.8.13 and the tool doesn't work
because it doesn't identify the right version of the kernel.

Is there a way to find out the kernel version at build time so i can 
replace it dynamically in that specific file?

Thanks in advance,

Andrei Dinu
