Note that we contribute and maintain support for this driver in
Cloud Hypervisor, so we control both sides of this API - if we break
userspace we can fix it ourselves.
For now the MSHV_CHECK_EXTENSION ioctl is sufficient - we can pass it
MSHV_CAP_CORE_API_STABLE, and it will return 0 to indicate that the API
is not yet stable.
A version check may be useful in the future, but is not needed right now.
