Currently in implementation the tools are actually architecture
specific.  Unfortuantly we only have linux-* and linux-*-flavour meta
package name spaces.  The linux-tools name already points to that coming
from the master branch.  That leaves us with only the flavour
specific name available for the ti-omap4 case.  In practice we likely
should have used -flavour for all of tools just in case flavour specific
tools come along in the future, but we have already missed that boat.
