You could set the version in the platformconfig to 4.1 and use symlinks to
switch:
configs/platform/kernelconfig-4.1 -> kernelconfig-4.1-foo
configs/platform/patches/linux-4.1 -> linux-4.1-foo
You could use the kernel template to build both kernels at the same time.
You'll need to tweak the rules a bit:
KERNEL_FOO := linux-$(KERNEL_FOO_VERSION)-foo
KERNEL_FOO_DIR := $(BUILDDIR)/$(KERNEL_FOO)
KERNEL_FOO_URL := .../linux-$(KERNEL_FOO_VERSION).$(KERNEL_FOO_SUFFIX)
KERNEL_FOO_SOURCE :=
$(SRCDIR)/linux-$(KERNEL_FOO_VERSION).$(KERNEL_FOO_SUFFIX)
You won't be able to use the kernel-url macro, just use a normal URL.
Basically, KERNEL_FOO must contain the '-foo' because the patch dir is
derived from this. And KERNEL_FOO_URL and KERNEL_FOO_SOURCE must point to
the upstream tarball.

Michael
