[poky] linux recipe PV requirements

[Darren Hart]

Are there restrictions on what the PV variable is set to?

I'd like to name the recipe I'm working on linux-linaro-2.6.35 and use 
PR and the git AUTOREV to define the PV value. However, when I make the 
following change in linux-linaro-2.6.35_git.bb:

- PV = "2.6.35"
+ PV = "${PR}+git${SRCREV}"


I get the following failure:

$ bitbake linux-linaro-2.6.35
