Depends on what you define as "right". :)

If you build any`fsl-` distro, then you should use either `linux-imx`
of `linux-fslc-imx` kernel. If you rather opt for any of `fslc-`
distro, then the kernel provider would be set to `linux-fslc`.

- `linux-fslc` is an upstream kernel (from stable korg), which has few
patches not upstreamed yet
- `linux-fslc-imx` is NXP kernel with latest patch level applied from
stable korg. This is based on the NXP release (2.1.0 in [dunfell]),
and then maintained in terms of security fixes applied in LTS branch.
- `linux-imx` is a "pure" NXP kernel, which is provided as a part of
their release(s). Current NXP release version present on the [dunfell]
branch is 2.1.0
