  perusing a BSP package handed to me by someone else and in their
recipes-kernel/linux/ directory, there's a custom kernel .bbappend
file with the line:

  EXTRA_KERNEL_SRC_URI += "file://kernelmods.scc"

i am unfamiliar with that SRC_URI-related variable, and i don't see it
anywhere under the numerous layers i have checked out. is this some
legacy/deprecated variable? i don't know what to make of it.
