[oe] RFC: Fix for bug 1744 and some restructuring of omap kernel bb files.

[Philip Balister]

I have given it a quick look, and it looks reasonable. It appears to 
drop OABI support, which I think is OK, except for the celinux distro 
(not sure).

The only real concern I have is that we would like to move to the 
linux.inc/linux_2.6.x.bb style of kernel bb files. Should we push this, 
or wait until we can convert the omap/davinci kernels to linux.inc? I 
shouldn't even look at this until September ...
