As far as I can see, the "super-stable" kernel releases should not affect module ABI in any way, that is, a module compiled for 2.6.11 or 2.6.11.2 should work with 2.6.11.4 and vise versa. Ofcourse I'm talking about modules which are out of the main kernel tree.
But. EXTRAVERSION gets changed with every 2.6.11.x release, thus making out-of-tree modules incompatible just because they contain different kernel version tag.
The question is obvious: Is this a correct/intended behaviour? Maybe, just maybe, EXTRAVERSION should not be taken into account when desciding if a given module compiled for a given kernel?
Thanks.
