You can see the kernel version ethtool, use command 'ethtool -i <ixgbe NIC
name>'
driver: ixgbe
version: 4.2.1-k
firmware-version: 0x61bf0001
Ixgbe's FW version do not have the major and minor number, and the original
purpose of this function is get FW version, so I think it's enough.

This API at least provide major and minor fw versions I think. Isn't there any
kind of FW version information for ixgbe? Just providing etrack_id is not
looking good.
