well, in that case the BSP recipe will be used as the layer has a higher
priority.

And to not have this kind of issue, you can simpy add the following
lines to your BSP's u-boot recipe :
DEFAULT_PREFERENCE = "-1"
DEFAULT_PREFERENCE_machine = "1"

or simply change to a u-boot_git.bbappend to just append your machine
specific changes to oe-core's default recipe.

or add something like this in your BSP conf file :
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel ?= "linux-yocto"
PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto = "3.4%"

Check 1.2.9 in BSP Guide for examples on how this can be done (example
for linux-yocto but the use case is the same here).
