How do you guarantee that the user is running at least 70.6? They might 
have an old firmware package. We don't currently fail if the minor is 
too low, we just throw a warning, so the driver would still load but the 
compatibility would be left unset in that scenario. Or are you 
suggesting to just fail the load if GuC < 70.6 ?
