 #     upstream bug tracker and no meaningful NVD CPE product; guessing a
 #     CVE_PRODUCT would create false or missed CVE matches, which is worse than
 #     leaving it unset. Set them inline on the rare recipe that has a real value.
+#   * oelint.bbclass.underscores - flags bbclass filenames containing '-'. These
+#     class names (machine-overrides-extender, fsl-dynamic-packagearch,
+#     kernel-imximage, imx-boot-container, use-imx-headers, etc.) are the layer's
+#     long-standing public API, inherited by name across meta-freescale and
+#     downstream BSP layers; renaming them would break every 'inherit'. oe-core
+#     itself ships dash-named classes (e.g. core-image.bbclass), so the naming
+#     convention this rule enforces does not apply here.
