The versioning of the glue libraries are for compatibility checks
between the PMD and its dependency (rdma-core) packaged as a plugin,
called glue library.
This versioning is updated when there is a change in the verbs glue
interface, in order to avoid issues in case of PMD and glue
updated separately with a non-compatible version.
I don't think the mlx glue libraries are part of the ABI policy
which acts at the application level.
Am I missing something?
