Why not just place out_wait_error label before out_wait (and do 'goto
out_wait' in ret = 0 case instead of 'goto out_wait_error' in the error
case)?

(Let me pretend I'm Dan :-) So here we return ...

... and here we goto where we just return. I suggest we bring some
consistency by directly returning ret here and eliminating 'out' label.

Do we really need it? When the driver is commited we won't probably be
updating it with v0.2 as a whole, we'll be sending patches addressing
issues and there always will be a question when to swtich to 0.2, 0.3,
... And we don't have MODULE_VERSION for other Hyper-V drivers.
