[PATCH 0/6] OE alignments, including patch.bbclass

[Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com>]

First, this is just a bunch of smaller alignments of OE lib code we
adopted. The more interesting change is The Final Fix (tm) of the
patching approach - by using OE's class.

This series depends on the earlier sent linux-custom report, namely the
old kernel build breaks with the new patching approach.
