Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: 8139too: switch to module_pci_driver; remove driver version

The module version is useless, and the only thing the
rtl8139_init_module routine did besides pci_register_driver was to print
the driver name and version.

Also replace hardcoded DRV_NAME macro with KBUILD_MODNAME,
which has the same value.
