Lucas De Marchi 4df9c1ae7a drm/i915: rename display.version to display.ver
The macro we use to check is called DISPLAY_VER(). While using this
macro and the new ones being added in following changes I made the
mistake multiple times when mixing both "ver" and "version". Although
it's usually better to prefer the complete name, the shorhand
DISPLAY_VER() / GRAPHICS_VER / MEDIA_VER are clear and cause less
visual polution.

Another issue is when copying the variable to other places.
"display.version" would be copied to a "display_version" variable which
is long and would make people abbreviate as "version", or "display_ver".
In the first case it's not always clear what version refers to, and in
the second case it just hints it should be the name in the first place.

So, in the same way use used "gen" rather than "generation", use "ver"
instead of "version".

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
