Subject: [PATCH 08/11] drivers: staging: rtl8188eu: remove unneeded MODULE_VERSION() call

Remove MODULE_VERSION(), as it doesn't seem to serve any practical purpose.
For in-kernel drivers, the kernel version matters most. The driver received
lots of changes, while module version remained constant, since it landed
in mainline, back 7 years ago.
