I just thought doing so may provide better compatibility to the
parent driver. Even when new op is introduced, a parent driver
that was developed against the old set can still be loaded in the
new kernel. It just returns error when unrecognized ops are
routed through vq_ctrl and device_ctrl, if the userspace doesn't
favor the exposed version value. But if above ops set is pretty
stable, then this comment can be ignored.
