My understanding semantic versioning is that it provides means to handle 
minor differences where a new capability is ignored in backwards 
compatible ways. This is what we use for SOF structures between driver 
and firmware, new fields might be added but used or not depending on 
versions.

For UCM, the interaction with other layers is limited to stream numbers 
and control names, so I am not sure what semantic versioning and 
backwards compatibility would mean here? I am all for it, but I don't 
get how it would work.
