BTW, no need to clean the entire build, just the kernel build:

$ bitbake virtual/kernel -c clean

Well, but then you are staring to change the recipe, which might be overkill 
for a simple defconfig change you want to test. If you go that route, you may 
want to create your own custom layer with the modified defconfig overlayed on 
top of meta-ti and a simple .bbappend with PRINC. That way your changes will 
be detached from meta-ti and you won't need to merge the recipe changes every 
time meta-ti updates... Although, there's no way to bbappend the defconfig 
itself - that's where config fragments come to play.
