The person who changed the stable openmoko repo to use the 2.6.24 kernel
should have changed the sane-srcrevs file at the same time.  To not do
so is to break the stable openmoko branch, causing pain for hundreds of
openmoko developers.

It's either a stable branch or it's not.

If it is going to be a stable branch, then the person doing the mtn pull
from OE to OM must *not* use moko-autorev but *must* use sane-srcrevs only.

If it's not going to be a stable branch (i.e. if OpenMoko engineers are
not going to honor the requirement to make sure that sane-srcrevs does
actually configure a working build and a booting phone), then just drop
the whole separate OM repository idea altogether and use OE.dev directly.
