Reduce the control transfer by moving calling rtl8152_get_version() in rtl8152_probe(). This could prevent from calling rtl8152_get_version() for unnecessary situations. For example, after setting config #2 for the device, there are two interfaces and rtl8152_probe() may be called twice. However, we don't need to call rtl8152_get_version() for this situation.
