These version numbers don't mean as much as you would expect them too. We try very hard to keep the source forge driver has close as possible to the current in kernel driver but there are differences for various reasons. (i.e. kcompat issues, differing module parameters, etc). That said we are even a little bit more out of sync at the moment, after pushing some additional support upstream that hasn't been included in the source forge driver yet. My hope was to sync them back up around a 4.2.x version, in a month or two.
As for 4.1 kernel support, we are currently working on a point release for the source forge driver (4.1.x) that will include 4.1 kernel support. I expect it to be on source forge sometime later this week.
