When this VMSD was introduced it's version fields were set to
sizeof(I6300State), making them essentially random from build to build,
version to version.
To fix this, we lock in a high version id and low minimum version id to
support old->new migration from all prior versions of this device's
state. This should work since the device state has not changed since
its introduction.
The potentially breaks migration from 1.5+ to 1.5, but since the
versioning was essentially random prior to this patch, new->old
migration was not consistently functional to begin with.
