documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-concepts.xml: Updated the text so that the conceptual figure showing the kernel is out.
Feedback indicated by Dave suggested getting rid of this. So I commented out the text around it and modified the reminder text so it did not reference a figure. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>

81 The ultimate source for the Yocto Project kernel is a released kernel

83 In addition to a foundational kernel from kernel.org the commercially released
84 Yocto Project kernel contains a mix of important new mainline
85 developments, non-mainline developments, Board Support Package (BSP) developments,
