There are several issues with the patch itself, but that is secondary.
The primary issue is that this adds a new layer dependency to meta-ti-bsp
(which is also not explicitly configured in layer.conf) - that is a very
undesirable thing for a BSP layer.
That is a very good point. I just sent my own reply to this patch
listing the issues with it. But this is a very very good point.
Question though... if the inclusion of the setup files in meta-selinux
are hidden behind a DISTRO_FEATURES then are we really adding a
dependency on meta-selinux? Or are we adding a conditional dependency
that assumes that if you are turning on "selinux" then meta-selinux must
be in the bblayers.conf?
This should be done in a Distro or Product layer (I'm not even shure
meta-arago-distro should have this by default, to be honest).

Kernel configs that are important for SELinux to be included in the
Linux kernel are present in the meta-selinux layer.
Ideally, we wouldn't want to be calling a file from another
layer since it would become messy. However, bringing those configs
into meta-ti layer would hit maintainbility issues.
The root cause of this problem lies in the recipe name. While
meta-selinux names their bbapend as linux_yocto_%.bbappend, TI has their
recipe named as linux-ti-staging_%.bb
