[PATCH] hostap: Remove driver version number

The driver version number has not been updated since the driver was
included in the main kernel tree and there is no plan on updating this
in the future either. At this point, the only correct way to refer to
the version is to use the kernel version. The 0.4.4 version is
confusing since there are external version with higher version number
even though they are not actually any newer than the in-tree version.

Let's get rid of the version number in the kernel tree in order to
avoid this kind of confusion.
