  in current ref manual:

http://docs.yoctoproject.org/ref-manual/structure.html#meta-conf-distro

the definition of meta/conf/distro opens with:

  "The contents of this directory controls any distribution-specific
  configurations..."

fair enough, but what is the interpretation of a layer distro/
directory that does not define any actual distros? example:
meta-virtualization layer hierarchy contains:

  .
  ├── distro
  │   └── include
  │       ├── k8s-versions.inc
  │       ├── meta-virt-default-versions.inc
  │       ├── meta-virt-xen.inc
  │       └── virt_security_flags.inc
  └── layer.conf

so, sure, those .inc files can be useful, but that layer does not
contain any actual meta-virt-related <distro>.conf files, so are those
files really "distribution-specific configurations"?

  is there a better way to word that?
