Let's be clear, as you mentioned, you've rejected similar patches in the past. There's real users affected by this strict versioning and causing unnecessary breakage. Hence, I'm assuming that other users are or have been impacted and carry a workaround. Relaxing the versioned include doesn't change what you've been testing, as it's pretty clear it is whatever is supported by oe-core. It's unfortunate because the linux-%.bbappend is relaxed.
