Scott Rifenbark 6a6ebdb2ad documentation: kernel-manual - removed white-space
White space at the end of a line in the DocBook .XML files
presents a problem for certain Git commands.  It evidently
shows the white space as red-highlighted errors.  I have removed
the white space from this concepts chapter.

Also, fixed one grammar item.

Scott Rifenbark 9137117b3f documentation: kernel-manual - minor edits before lockdown
Fixed a few references and links.  Also standardized on the
capitalization for the term "Source Directory" where it
refers to the YP poky structure on the development machine.

Scott Rifenbark 5c44309cfe documentation/kernel-manual: Fixed minor problems
I did a read-through of the manual and spotted several nits that
I fixed.  All these are minor fixes.

Scott Rifenbark 333f776d6c documentation: Updates for [YOCTO #1717].
Minor edits to the BSP Guide, the Development Manual, and the
Kernel Manual to address [YOCTO #1717], which noted confusion
over the kernel manual when a user was trying to find kernel
configuration information.

The fix for this bug involved several areas.  I had previously
created a new section called "Kernel Configuration" in the kernel
manual and "Configuring the Kernel" in the YP Development manual.
There were several rounds of feedback from Bruce Ashfield.

This commit represents the final touches on the three manuals to
address the bug.

Fixes [YOCTO #1717]

Scott Rifenbark 70ae82a161 documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-concepts.xml: New kernel section
This section is the first attempt at a new, high-level discussion
of Linux Yocto Kernel configuration.  The section is supposed to
introduce the concepts only and leave the "How to" stuff for other
areas of the documentation.  I have thrown this section out to the
Yocto Projects Discussion list for feedback.  It will change.

These are transitory and related to bug 1717 (the kernel manual

Scott Rifenbark 684c35b7aa documentation: Changed all manual links to point to "latest"
There are many references to YP documentation throughout the
YP manual set.  They used to have hard-coded links to the
current release (e.g. yoctoproject.org/docs/1.1 for Edison).
This created a situation where if you went to a document on
the website and clicked on a external reference to another
manual, you would redirect to the current manual on the website.
Really, you would want to go to the latest manual, which is
one that is under development.  Changing the links to
"yoctoproject.org/docs/latest" makes the tip of master, which
is used for devloping the next release, always have references
to the manuals being developed and not back to the stable
released set of manuals.

This "latest" and "current" scheme for the links is not perfect.
What has to happen when the latest set of the manuals freezes
and becomes the next stable release, all the links in the docs
will need to be changed from "latest" in the URL to the new
release number.  So for example, all the "latest" occurences
would need to be changed to "1.2".  Then for the next cycle
as development begins again, the links need to be infused with
"latest" again.
