The kernel already prints its build timestamp during boot, no need to
repeat it in random drivers and produce different object files each
time.

Does GIT provide something like that ? If not
IMHO the line
 printk(KERN_INFO "hdlcdrv: version 0.8\n");
can be removed.

OK, submit a separate patch then. I personally don't care about version

I didn't find the commit in today's linux-next, so I applied this to
kbuild-2.6.git#trivial.
