Try making the override board specific, there's nothing special about
the way that the kernel preferred version works compared to other
variables.

So if you are building qemux86 (as an example), just do:

PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto_qemux86 = "3.17%"

and assuming that the 3.17 recipe is available, it will work
(that's cut and pasted from my local.conf :)

Cheers,

Bruce
