Thanks for the patch, it was merged in master. As a follow-up, could you
send patches to document these variables in
https://git.yoctoproject.org/yocto-docs/tree/documentation/ref-manual/variables.rst?

And add a note here
https://git.yoctoproject.org/yocto-docs/tree/documentation/migration-guides/release-notes-6.0.rst#n24?

Thanks!
Antonin
