I think this change was unneeded, as vdsm builds for different
architectures use the *same* release:

    name-major.minor.bugfix-release.offset.githash

Unlike other packages using:

    name-major.minor.bugfix-release.timestamp.githash

So I don't see why this patch was needed.

Additionally, vdsm sub packages are tightly coupled, and using a package
from different commit is *not* supported, as internal apis may always change.

So we should revert this patch.
