[poky] [PATCH 1/1] kernel.py: replace os.popen with subprocess.Popen

[Robert Yang]

Replace os.popen with subprocess.Popen since the older function would
fail (more or less) silently if the executed program cannot be found

More info:
http://docs.python.org/library/subprocess.html#subprocess-replacements
