After '6392a63 rpi-base.inc: Use KERNEL_DEVICETREE by default' was
introduced, kernel versions < 3.18 might not be buildable. Since full
device tree support was introduced in 3.18 this change ensures
that all
kernel < 3.18 will automatically disable device tree.

Why do you remove this line? Maybe by mistake?
Yes this is by mistake, thanks for finding it. Will send up a new
version with this fixed.

Aren't we able to use the same variable name, KERNEL_DEVICETREE? What
that be a little clearer?
No, at least i couldn't get this working. When trying to set the
environment variable KERNEL_DEVICETREE in this context the values was
only ignored. Don't know if the image recipe (or at least the IMAGE_CMD
func) are doing something special. Perhaps it's possible to use 'eval'
or something similar to enforce the expansion of the variable. If you
have any good advice please share them, otherwise I can at least write
some comment about this.
