title: How to compare kernel (or other) version numbers in Ansible
body: <p>For a role I'm developing I need to verify that the kernel version is greater than a particular version.</p>
  <p>I've found the <code>ansible_kernel</code> fact, but is there an easy way to compare this to other versions?  I thought I might manually explode the version string on the <code>.</code>'s and compare the numbers, but I can't even find a friendly filter to explode the version string out, so I'm at a loss.</p>
