These are the right options IMO. We can also get complete mesa recipe in meta-intel, which will override the one from oecore layer completely. Then we have full control of mesa from meta-intel layers. Currently extending the oecore mesa recipe from meta-intel is not very elegant, but at least it is working as we want. Also making few changes to the oecore mesa recipe will make it easier to extend it from other layers.
