Different versions of the batman-adv module may use the same compatibility
version, but this is not understandable at runtime (the only way is to parse the
kernel log and fetch the batman-adv advertisement message on loading). The user
may want to know whether two nodes using different versions can communicate or
not. For this purpose the module has to export this value through debugfs.
