Hi Igor
Driver versions are pretty much useless. Say somebody backports this
driver into a vendor kernel. Vendor kernels are typically based on an
old kernel, plus thousands of patches. Is 2.0.4 on such a kernel the
same as 2.0.4 in 4.19?
You probably want to remove this, just the avoid people thinking is
means something.
