Definitely the driver version to include is a sticky situation, I have to admit that I was staring into the diff a little bit longer than I needed to before realizing it was all copied files.
But the other thing about dropping MODULE_SUPPORTED_DEVICE call, is this something that "retro Raspberry Pi" enthusiasts might want to put back in when using older kernel versions?

I don't think so :-) It sounds like it was never really used for anything:

I'll fix the commit message on the parport update so it's more clear that it's copied code. Sorry about that!
Force pushed with commit message changes (no code changes). I'll go ahead and merge. Thanks for keeping an eye on things @quorten!

Yeah it's really lame to have to do that forever. I just closed raspberrypi/linux#3923 due to lack of response for a very long time (kind of forgot about it). I'll resubmit with only the parport enablement and see if that goes any better.
