Ah, forget another use-case. So, besides combining UBOOT_CONFIG_FRAGMENTS with 
UBOOT_CONFIG, what about mixing in-tree and out-of-tree fragments? :) I know 
the matrix of possible options is getting quite complex, that's why we have a 
separate setup-defconfig.inc for the kernel in meta-ti to cover all the bases.
