Update stale libdm/misc/dm-log-userspace.h
The upstream kernel version that this file mirrors has changed, here is the commit message: commit 86a54a4802df10d23ccd655e2083e812fe990243 Author: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com> Date: Thu Jan 13 19:59:52 2011 +0000 dm log userspace: add version number to comms This patch adds a 'version' field to the 'dm_ulog_request' structure. The 'version' field is taken from a portion of the unused 'padding' field in the 'dm_ulog_request' structure. This was done to avoid changing the size of the structure and possibly disrupting backwards compatibility. The version number will help notify user-space daemons when a change has been made to the kernel/userspace log API.
