This allows to have one override mechansim for meta-intel instead of having
multiple machine overrides.
This replaces using rmc in DISTRO_FEATURES which was a bad idea to set in

When using the init-install-efi.sh scripts from oe-core to install to a
USB stick, we do not get the "rootwait" kernel command line option.
Without the rootwait option we get a kernel panic when
attempting to boot from the installed USB stick.
This patch adds rootwait to the kernel command line of all intel-*
MACHINEs as a temporary workaround. This could potentially impact boot
times with devices that do not require it, but in testing with a
Silverjaw lure and SSD on a MinnowBoard Max, it did not have a noticable
impact.

The gma500_gfx driver will match certain devices on which it causes incorrect functionality,
we want to avoid inserting this module, basicallly blacklist it for specific hardware,
but still allow it to work on other hardware by default; usually when we have an already working system,
using udev rules would do the job, but since we are building it, it is impossible to blacklist
a driver when a certain udev rule matches, since rootfs isn't writeable at this point during boot time,
the solution is to use modprobe install, which runs a certain command instead of inserting a matching module
this command needs to insert the module manually afterwards and have a flag --ignore-install
so it doesn't create an infinite loop executing itself everytime it wants to insert the module,
busybox's modprobe doesnt provide this functionality, so a small hack had to be used to avoid
the infite loop instead.

Remove meta-romley BSP layer from meta-intel master branch
which is targeting for YP 2.0.
A heads-up email was sent to the meta-intel mailing list for
requesting any feedback regarding retirement of these BSP.
Since there is no concern, we assume that it is agreed upon
and thus this patch to retire the BSP.
The "MAINTAINERS file" and "conf/machine/README file" are updated to
reflect removal of the BSP.
We expect intel-corei7-64 machine is continued to be used to support
the platform and dpdk recipe under meta-romley is now supported under
meta-isg/common/recipes-extended/dpdk.

The microcode data file released by Intel has microcode for many Intel
processors, which by default all get installed onto the target image.
In some situations it may desirable to choose microcode for only a
selected processor or processors. This change provides an easier way
to filter and select only the microcode of interest for BSPs from
recipe space.
A new variable, UCODE_FILTER_PARAMETERS, is introduced, which can be
defined to contain parameters to the iucode_tool which will filter the
microcode of interest for the BSP under consideration. More
information on the iucode-tool parameters is available here:
http://manned.org/iucode-tool.
This filtering makes the generated microcode files very
machine-specific, hence making the recipe machine-specific. BSPs using
the common Intel kernel will not be using the filtered microcode, and
will be able to share the intel-microcode packages with the common
Intel package arch for the recipe.

Any BSP from the meta-intel layer can enable Intel microcode loading
support by adding the following line in the machine configuration.

This change keeps the intel-microcode feature disabled by default; it
