[poky] Poky issues with tune-cortexa8 and a custom machine

[Salvatore Fassi]

Hi all,

I finally fixed this issue by adding:

PACKAGE_ARCHS += "armv7a"

to tune-cortexa8.inc

In fact the armv7a arch was missing from the PACKAGE_ARCHS variable so it
was not "seen" when composing the final image.
Do you think it could be a valid patch?
For me...it works!

Salvo
