Or perhaps get rid of that unworkable "version number" thing (just freeze it in time with the 2.6.35 value returned), and implement a "get_feature_flags" ioctl or something for going forward. Then you can just turn on new bits in the flags as new features are added.
It's a kludge (to get around the poor use of -EINVAL everywhere), but at least it's a design that's workable.
Cheers
