The driver will either load and say which microcode revision the machine has or issue an error. Then, the version number is meaningless and actively confusing, as Yazen mentioned recently: when a subset of patches are backported to a distro kernel, one can't assume the driver version is the same as the upstream one. And besides, the version number of the loader hasn't been used and incremented for a long time. So drop it.
