Subject: [PATCH 02/11] drivers: staging: gasket: remove unneeded MODULE_VERSION() call

Remove MODULE_VERSION(), as it doesn't seem to serve any practical purpose.
For in-tree drivers, the kernel version matters. The code has received lots
of changes, w/o the versions being actively maintained, so it doesn't seem
to have much practical meaning.
