The kernel does not use CONFIG_MODULE_SRCVERSION_ALL=y, which prevents
modules that don't use MODULE_VERSION() tags from getting a srcversion
field in their modinfo.  DKMS uses the srcversion field to determine
if a module is exactly the same or not.  It would benefit from having
srcversion enabled for all modules.  Ubuntu and openSUSE enable this
option.

Thanks,
Matt
