catching up with all the YP stuff i've missed over the last while
and, in the BSP guide in the layers section:

https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/bsp-guide/bsp-guide.html#bsp-layers

one reads:

"Some layers function as a layer to hold other BSP layers. These
layers are knows as "container layers". An example of this type of
layer is the meta-intel layer. This layer contains BSP layers for the
Intel-core2-32 Intel® Common Core (Intel-core2-32) and the
Intel-corei7-64 Intel® Common Core (Intel-corei7-64). the meta-intel
layer also contains the common/ directory, which contains common
content across those layers. "

pretty sure meta-intel has been a regular BSP layer for a while now,
so another example should be used. off the top of my head, i'd suggest
meta-xilinx:

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-xilinx/

unless anyone has strong objections, i can send in a patch.
