Normally settings like this are being used:

PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-adi"

You should provide a default in the board/machine configuration, and the 
user can pick another in local.conf or in the distro.conf.

I had both kernels in my BSP as well, but since the ADI kernel is just a 
merge of the xilinx kernel with the ADI drivers, there was no reason to 
ever use the Xilinx kernel directly, so I abandoned it. And later 
switched to my own fork of the kernel because Xilinx didn't accept any 
patches.
