A few more discoveries.

1. LAYERSERIES_COMPAT and BBFILE_PATTERN syntax still has an underscore.

    LAYERSERIES_COMPAT_phosphor-layer <-- correct
    LAYERSERIES_COMPAT:phosphor-layer <-- incorrect.

    If you were a little too aggressive at making this change (like me) you can
    fix it with:

    $ git grep -l "LAYERSERIES_COMPAT:" meta-facebook | xargs sed -i 's/LAYERSERIES_COMPAT:/LAYERSERIES_COMPAT_/'
    $ git grep -l "BBFILE_PATTERN:" meta-facebook | xargs sed -i 's/BBFILE_PATTERN:/BBFILE_PATTERN_/'

2. local.conf.sample has changed slightly and CONF_VERSION needs to be
   incremented.  The suggestion from upstream is to use your favorite
   diff-editor to compare the two such as:

   $ vimdiff ./poky/meta-poky/conf/local.conf.sample meta-facebook/meta-tiogapass/conf/local.conf.sample

   Except that we don't have this file updated until we do the subtree pull, so
   in the meantime you could compare against this version (use wget/curl):

   http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/plain/meta-poky/conf/local.conf.sample

3. LAYERSERIES_COMPAT will need "honister" added since that is the next Yocto
   release after hardknott.

   Potential fixup:

   $ git grep -l "LAYERSERIES_COMPAT_" meta-facebook | xargs sed -i 's/hardknott"/hardknott honister"/'
