Software Modifications

Variscite is updating all relevant software repositories and recommends impacted users to upgrade to Yocto Langdale imx-6.1.1-1.0.1.xml@f6649d or newer.

While adding support to meta-variscite-bsp, the layer was split into meta-variscite-bsp-imx and meta-variscite-bsp-common. It is recommended to rebase on top of Variscite's latest commits.

The following are the relevant patches:
