kernel-dev: Fix the locations of .config and source directory

2016-06-21T11:59:47+00:00

The locations of the kernel .config file and source direcotry moved a couple releases ago. Updated the documentation accordingly. Also added a note explaining how to check the expansion of variables, which servs a couple of purposes: * For curious readers, shows them how to understand where these variables come from and how they are used. * For suspicious readers, shows them how they can verify that the variables in the documentation are actually correct.

kernel-dev: Added cross-reference to .config information

2015-10-29T22:05:36+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #7474] There was not a strong tie between .config file discussions for the kernel between corresponding menuconfig sections in the kernel-dev and dev-manual manuals. I added a cross- reference link in the kernel-dev manual to help tie this information together.
