-rev and -sku don't fit the versioning scheme for QTI devices, so this
isn't a generic enough approach. Patch 5 in this series describes the
versioning scheme for us.

In the other thread, we had talked about using some regex based approach
for matching the root node compatible. I haven't had chance to work on
that proposal and will try to get to it in the next couple weeks.

Thanks,
Elliot
