So I just complained about the bnxt_re doing this. I guess I need to
raise a flag here too. Now to be clear I'm not against doing this
version stuff. I'm against using it for some internal tracking that is
meaningless to the kernel community.
There is no detail in your commit message as to what this driver version
is used for. Can you please explain how your use of driver version is
valid while theirs is not?
I realize Dave has already pulled this and I'm not asking for it to be
reverted but maybe some discussion will help guide future patch
submissions which do this stuff.
