====================
net: Don't bother filling in ethtool driver version
The drivers included in this series set the ethtool driver version to the
same as the default, UTS_RELEASE, so don't both doing this.
As noted by Masahiro in [0], with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y, some drivers could
be built as modules against a different kernel tree with differing
UTS_RELEASE. As such, these changes could lead to a change in behaviour.
However, defaulting to the core kernel UTS_RELEASE would be expected
behaviour.
