I'm leaving decisions about adding DRV_VERSION defines and MODULE_VERSION()-s
to maintainers of the respective drivers.

While at it:

* Remove unused VERSION define from ide.c.

* Remove unused/stale DRV_VERSION define from au1xxx-ide.c.

How about getting rid of this stupid thing in drivers/ide/ide.c:

#define REVISION "Revision: 7.00alpha2"

which is used in:

printk(KERN_INFO "Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver " REVISION "\n");

It's been 7.00alpha2 for god knows how long, so clearly this version number is not useful..
