The following series of patches removes almost all inclusions
of linux/version.h. The 3 #defines are unused in most of the touched files.
A few drivers use the simple KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) macro, which is unfortunatly
in linux/version.h. This define moved to linux/utsname.h
There are also lots of #ifdef for long obsolete kernels, this will go as well.
I agree with most of the changes (and I say "most" simply because I
haven't reviewed all of them), but it would be better to coalesce these
100+ patches into much smaller patch clumps.
"split your patches up" mantra can get taken too far. We want -logical
changes- separated out, and your patches are largely a single logical
change (remove old code).
