Why are you versioning your api? Shouldn't that not be a thing and you
either support an ioctl or you do not?

Shouldn't drivers be quiet when they load and all goes well? pr_dbg()?

And can't you defer the "read the version" call until open happens?
Does it have to happen at module load time, increasing boot time for no
good reason if there is not a user?
