This series cleans up some existing out of date linux-xlnx kernels as well as
cleaning configuration and recipes.
Specifically the the linux-xlnx 3.14 and 3.19 kernels are dropped. There are a
number of reasons why these kernels are being removed, includeing:
* No longer maintained by Xilinx
* Do not support all architectures/platforms in meta-xilinx
* Older outdated DT bindings that cause confusion and compatiblity issues.
* Changing to a policy where only the newest linux-xlnx release is available
The last point is something that I would like to start following more strictly,
especially as mainline kernels and linux-yocto have almost complete support for
MicroBlaze, Zynq and ZynqMP which removes the need to maintain recipes for
released kernels of the Xilinx vendor tree.
Additionally this series pins linux-xlnx 4.0% as the default linux-xlnx version,
cleans up remaining patches and generalises ZynqMP compatiblity for kernels.
