I should have explained more :)
This is required only for the devices which have multiple versions
available, so it will pick one try it out and if not found go to
subsequent one. So I thought it would be make sense to keep the version
values for a specific device (not whole table) ordered so that we can
pick the next entry. Of course if you have better idea to manage two
versions, am all ears :)
