Some authors of SCSI drivers use the version number to track which
version of their driver ends up in Linux distributions like RHEL or
SLES. I think that the driver version numbers are not useful in the UFS
drivers because the current version number is 0.2 and that version
number was assigned in 2013, more than nine years ago. See also commit
e0eca63e3421 ("[SCSI] ufs: Separate PCI code into glue driver").
Thanks,
Bart.
