Nothing. It's an artifact of the _appends that are present
in the linux-yocto recipe bbappends. You can clear it, but they'll
still append.

Those config fragments weren't optional when the recipes were
created, we've since evolved to the point where they are.

I squeezed in a change to linux-yocto_3.8 before the yocto 1.4
cutoff, and have changed linux-yocto_3.4 to match, and strangely,
was about to send a consolidated pull request that contains the
change.

You can either locally make the same change, and clear:

  KERNEL_EXTRA_FEATURES

or wait for my latest update.

Cheers,

Bruce
