Hi Vadym

You keep the version the same, but add new features? So what does the
version number actually mean? How does the driver know if should not
use the policer if it cannot tell old version 3.0 from new version
3.0?  How is a user supposed to know if they have old version 3.0
rather than new 3.0, when policer fails?
