This is a kernel patch. Why should we check the kernel version in the
kernel code?

As patches may be back-ported we should not make any assumptions in fwts
based on the kernel version. If the ioctl() call fails with errno =
ENOTTY, we know that the kernel does not implement the ioctl call and we
have to assume that all runtime services are available.

Best regards
