The rationale is for this specific increase is this: if you previously had
meta-yocto in your existing bblayers.conf, since the reference BSP parts of
meta-yocto were split out into meta-yocto-bsp for the upcoming release, you
now need to add that layer to get the same functionality back. So we use this
mechanism to get users to do that.

By "better way to deal with these", what would you suggest? I don't see any
alternative that avoids the BSP components just disappearing for users who
have existing configurations.
