kernel-dev: Updated "Creating and Preparing a Layer" section 

This section failed to mention the "yocto-layer create" script,

into the section by way of a "Tip" box.

The Yocto Project comes with many tools that simplify
tasks you need to perform.
One such tool is the <filename>yocto-layer create</filename>
script, which simplifies creating a new layer.
See the

section in the Yocto Project Development Manual for more
