[PATCH] Remove a number of unneeded import os/bb calls

[Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>]

The bb and os modules are always imported so having these extra import calls
are a waste of space/execution time. They also set a bad example for people
copy and pasting code so clean them up.
