Subject: [PATCH] Remove stale entry for generated version.h file in .gitignore
Since userspace headers were moved to generated/uapi it possible to have a stale copy
of linux/version.h at that file's old location. This causes confusion after building
an older kernel version, then checking out and building a new one; the old (stale)
version header will still get picked up until it is manually removed. This upsets the
C library.
Since the uapi changes, include/linux/version.h is no longer generated and should not
be ignored, so this patch removes it from .gitignore.
