This already comes in via omap3.inc, so you don't need to do this in your 
machine config.

Also, it's worth noting that in current meta-ti master you don't need to 
require tune-cortexa8.inc either since omap3.inc does this too (unless you're 
wanting to support use with an older version of the meta-ti layer).

Cheers,
Paul
