Subject: Re: [PATCH v4 5/5] scsi: fnic: Increment driver version number

Since we are making a major fix to the driver here do we want to squash this change
together with

[PATCH v4 2/5] scsi: fnic: Fix crash in fnic_wq_cmpl_handler when FDMI times out

so that the driver version gets updated in Stable together with the bug fix?
