 For XenServer 6.5 or above, the kernel version naming no longer contains
-KERNEL_FLAVOR.  Correspondingly, the the final "rpmbuild" step changes to:
+KERNEL_FLAVOR.  In fact, only providing the `uname -r` output is enough.
+So, the final "rpmbuild" step changes to:
 
    ```
-   VERSION=<Open vSwitch version>
-   KERNEL_NAME=<Xen Kernel name>

-   XEN_VERSION=<Xen Kernel flavor(suffix) >

-
-    `<Xen Version>` is the output of `uname -r`.  Since XenServer 6.5, the
