+ * Here is the level of compatibility
+ * (between the user level daemon and the kernel KVP driver) that we

+ * An older daemon will always be supported on a newer driver.
+ * A given user level daemon will require a minimal version of the

+ * If we cannot handle the version differences, we will fail gracefully
+ * (this can happen when we have a user level daemon that is more
+ * advanced than the KVP driver.
+ *
+ * We will use values used in this handshake for determining if we have
+ * workable user level daemon and the kernel driver. We begin by taking the
+ * registration opcode out of the KVP opcode namespace. We will however,
