[oe] MACHINE_KERNEL_PR issue

Hi,

While creating a recipe which generates a module I bumped into the
following issue.
If I do
inherit module
the package name uses MACHINE_KERNEL_PR and not PR.
I understand the reason for this: if the kernel is modified you want
the proper modules.
However in a recipe this means that if the recipe changes for whatever
reason that technically one should increase all MACHINE_KERNEL_PR
values (as otherwise the new version is not used).
In my eyes this is not very desirable.

Any opinions how we should fix this?

Frans
