documentation/dev-manual/dev-manual-kernel-appendix.xml: added note 

There are some issues with the fact that the build process parses
all kernel .bbappend files whether they are used or not during the
build process.  I added an extra build configuration note regarding
editing the .bbappend file.  I noted that you either have to edit
every .bbappend file and comment out the COMPATIBLE_MACHINE statement
or simply remove all the kernel recipe append files except the one
you are interested in.

(From yocto-docs rev: ecece911a1623b9b12bb73bab50891fbdea7afbe)

<note>
Due to some issues there is one more change you have to make before attempting your
build.
Before attempting to build the modified kernel there is one more set of changes you
need to make in the <filename>meta-kernel-dev</filename> layer.
Because all the kernel <filename>.bbappend</filename> files are parsed during the
build process regardless of whether you are using them or not, you should either
comment out the <filename>COMPATIBLE_MACHINE</filename> statements in all
<filename>.bbappend</filename> files, or you should simply remove all the files
except the one your are using for the build (i.e. <filename>linux-yocto_2.6.37.bbappend</filename>
in this example).
