I sent a related patch yesterday:
http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2019-March/280511.html

The problem with setting PV properly, is that 2.32 is less than 2.32.0
and will cause the 'version going backwards' problem. But if RP/Khem
are fine with it, I would prefer your patch.
