This whole discussion was more emotional than intellectual :). Anyway, I sent v4 https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rdma/20200127072028.19123-1-leon@xxxxxxxxxx and that variant provides default version value without harming out-of-tree modules. I have a plan to start and remove ethtool version and MODULE_VERSION() calls from the drivers/net/* modules after merge window completes. Does this plan sound right to you? Thanks
