Re: yocto ref manual: confusion between BB_ENV_WHITELIST and BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE

[Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@linux.intel.com>]

I  changed the variable from BB_ENV_WHITELIST in the description to 
BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE to make sense with the given example.  You can see the 
change at 
http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.3/poky-ref-manual/poky-ref-manual.html#ref-bitbake-runtask.
