Given the feedback from Bernd, I'll see at adding such a version choice.

Let's say we go this route:

  - add a version choice for 1.14.7 (for tegra-binaries) and 1.17.1 (the
    current version), defaulting to 17.1;

  - add hidden symbols for the driver ABI supported by each version;

  - make nvidia-tegra23 depend on the appropriate ABI symbol.

OK?

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
