It was pointed out that the current way the KERNEL_FEATURES variable

features to be prevented in a layer without using python code and
a recipe finalize hook.

To allow easier overriding of 'extra' or 'optional' features that are
defined in the linux-yocto recipe, we create a KERNEL_EXTRA_FEATURES
variable. This variable can be set in a layer to define extra features
or cleared to prevent the recipe's extra features from being appended
to the core functionality.

You know what I'm going to say right? Docume.... right, good.

Bruce, are you keeping a list of things that have changed and need
documentation in the kernel-dev manual? Could you share it?

I do have a list, I'll put it in bugzilla.
