Since I kind of started the problem, some background....

I'm very nervous using a shared u-boot recipe to ship to customers,
since there always seems to be some regression creeping in as other
people fix things for their hardware (the recent L2 cache turn off for
omap3 to fix omap4 booting comes to mind).

So I want to control my u-boot with an iron fist!

But, I tried to be lazy and not pollute the u-boot package namespace by
calling the recipe u-boot-usrp-e1xx. Apparently this did not work so well :)
