I have opened PR #44 on the GitHub meta-xilinx to address the
qemu-oe-bridge-helper issue in the qemu-xilinx-helper-native recipe.

I have also written a patch for runqemu to get rid of that hard-coded
network device in bridge mode and use the machine.conf provided one.  I
am sure that what I did will stir some discussion and probably invite
changes.  What is the best method to submit this patch to poky for
review?  Should I open a PR to the GitHub/Xilinx poky repo, or should I
attach it with a post to [email protected], or other?  I just
want to be sure that it goes somewhere that will eventually make its way
into the Xilinx poky stream.

Thanks,
Corey
