[Documentation][RFC 2/3] RN: Update BSP scope to point external links and Freescale RN

[Daiane Angolini]

The Release Notes for the kernel is out of scope of this RN.

Please, help me to add the better pointer for release notes
out of scope of FSL Community BSP but important for
development, such as kernel release notes for linux providers
others that linux-imx.

I suggest

  The FSL Community BSP follows the same release schedule as
  the Yocto Project's.

If you don't agree with the suggestion, please, note the
s/Communtiy/Community/ typo fix.

I suggest 

  See the `Yocto Project Releases <https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Releases>`_ document
  for details on the Yocto Project.

(note s/Projec Release/Project Releases/)

I don't know what the `_' character is for in that sentence. I assume it
is a rst syntax, so I've kept it.  If it is noise, please consider
removing it.

Re: [Documentation][RFC 2/3] RN: Update BSP scope to point external links and Freescale RN

Hi Daiane, 

Can the meta-fsl-ppc layer info be added in this patch, or should a separate patch be submitted to add the ppc layer info?

I think it should be a separated patch. It'd be awesome if you could
cook this patch and send so Daiane can put it in a branch and we add
the meta-fsl-ppc there while we work in the integration for master.

Daiane?

Hi Mario, thanks a lot for your suggestions.

I have fixed/updated the patches.

Lou, I have uploaded the patches on my personal github, this way we
can rework then before merging into the original project.
