After reading few comments, I think it should just fill a string.
There is no way the firmware version can be generalized or standardized.
If the application wants to do some processing like number comparisons,
it has to be aware of the specific firmware version string format.
If you want to help the application to parse this string, it should be
a PMD specific API.
