Unfortunately, this badly breaks 'devtool upgrade':

======
ak at kanavin-desktop:~/development/poky/build$ devtool upgrade openssl -V 
1.0.2n
.....
WARNING: This recipe fetches more than one source tree. Each source tree 
will be tracked in a separate git repository.
NOTE: Extracting upgraded version source...
ERROR: Execution of 'git checkout devtool-base -b devtool-1.0.2n' failed 
with exit code 128:
fatal: 'devtool-base' is not a commit and a branch 'devtool-1.0.2n' 
cannot be created from it
=====

I would strongly request that this patchset not be merged into master 
until the issue is resolved.
