staging: fsl-mc: Changed version matching rules for MC object drivers
Before this change, we were requiring a complete version match (major and
minor version numbers) between MC objects and corresponding drivers, to
allow MC objects to be bound to their drivers. We realized that a mismatch
in minor version numbers should be tolerated, as long as the major version
numbers match. This allows the driver to decide what to do in the minor
version mismatch case. For example, a driver may decide to run with
downgraded functionality if the MC firmware object has older minor version
number than the driver. Also, a driver with older minor version than the
MC firmware object may decide to run even though it cannot use newer
functionality of the MC object.
As part of this change, the dpmng Flib version was also updated
to match the latest MC firmware version.
