[Debian-ha-maintainers] Bug#659353: drbd8-utils - Warns if version of kernel module and utils does not match

[Bastian Blank]

Package: drbd8-utils
Version: 2:8.3.9-1
Severity: important

drbdadm warns if the version of the kernel module and the utils does not
match:
| DRBD module version: 8.3.11
|    userland version: 8.3.9
| you should upgrade your drbd tools!

The shipped ocf resource agent lets this message out on stderr on every
call and it gets properly logged via syslog. I found around 1000 of this
since the machine was upgraded two hours ago.

As the kernel module is now independant of the utils, it can't longer
make assumptions about the version. Either the protocol is stable within
a given range and it should just accept that, or it is not.
