[meta-xilinx] trying to build core-image-zynq with yocto exposes conflicting patch files

[Robert P. J. Day]

  (aside: hoping this is the right place for this. i just purchased a
zedboard and i want to build bootable images for it both from scratch,
and using oe/yocto. would those approaches represent two separate
forums i should be using?)

  with fully-updated oe-core and meta-zynq yocto layers, i tried to
build "core-image-zynq" and got:

ERROR: Command Error: exit status: 1  Output:
Applying patch no-gtk.patch
patching file Makefile
Hunk #1 FAILED at 1.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- rejects in file Makefile
Patch no-gtk.patch does not apply (enforce with -f)
ERROR: Function failed: patch_do_patch

  this is not surprising since oe-core supplies a recipe for
latencytop that includes the patch latencytop-makefile.patch which
includes:

-HAS_GTK_GUI = 1

  while the meta-zynq layer appends to the latencytop recipe by adding
the no-gtk.patch which does exactly the same thing:

-HAS_GTK_GUI = 1

so, predictably, the full patch phase fails. how should that be
properly resolved?
