I've noticed one more thing related to linux-yocto. Is it expected that
only qemuarm is using 4.8 by default and (qemu)x86* is still using 4.4?

meta/conf/machine/include/x86-base.inc:PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto ??= "4.4%"
meta/conf/machine/qemuarm.conf:PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto ??= "4.8%"

I've checked poky repository and it is using 4.8 at least for qemu* and various
other MACHINEs, so it might make sense to use the same for nodistro for consistency?
