====================
Clean driver, module and FW versions
Change log:
v1:
* Split all FW cleanups patches to separate patches
* Fixed commit message
* Deleted odd DRV_RELDATE
* Added everyone from MAINTAINERS file
v0: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20200220145855.255704-1-leon@kernel.org
This is first patchset to netdev (already sent RDMA [1] and arch/um [2])
in attempt to unify the version management for in-tree kernel code.
The patches follow already accepted ethtool change [3] to set as
a default linux kernel version.
It allows us to remove driver version and present to the users unified
picture of driver version, which is similar to default MODULE_VERSION().
As part of this series, I deleted various creative attempts to mark
absence of FW. There is no need to set "N/A" in ethtool ->fw_version
field and it is enough to do not set it.
1.
The code is compile tested and passes 0-day kbuild.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
