[PATCH] add printing of udev version to scripts/ver_linux

[Jesper Juhl]

Since udev is starting to be used a lot of places and I've seen people get 
asked about their udev version a few times on lkml I figured it was 
perhaps time that scripts/ver_linux reported this info so it would get 
into more bugreports by default.

This patch adds printing of udev version to scripts/ver_linux

I guess it would also make sense to also add a tiny bit of text about udev 
to Documentation/Changes if the above goes in - if so there's a possible 
patch to do that below.
