Unable to to use devtool with 2018.3 release #3

Seems like I can no longer use devtool to write kernel patches when including openamp in my distro via DISTRO_FEATURES.

When running

MACHINE=avg-mcb devtool modify virtual/kernel

I get the following error

...
ERROR: Could not generate configuration queue for avg-mcb.

At the moment I don't have time to further dig into this issue but my guess is that it is related to the .scc file no longer being mentioned in the SRC_URI of the new linux-%.bbappend.
On the yocto homepage they mention "You can add kernel features in the recipe-space by using the KERNEL_FEATURES variable and by specifying the feature's .scc file path in the SRC_URI statement."
