Bogdan: This is probably one of the cases we shouldn't automatically
update just based on the output of the version checking scripts. We
should only change the point release version here if there is a change
to the kernel headers that we need.

As for the recipe owner, this one may be best owned by Bruce but I'm
open minded on that.
