In Linux 6.14-rc1 the field 'date' has been removed from the struct drm_driver. See upstream commit: cb2e1c2136f716 drm: remove driver date from struct drm_driver and all drivers Adjust the initialization of the struct drm_driver accordingly.

Adding a bit more of information. This was deprecated in 6.11 and removed in 6.14. |

If this simple fix is all it takes, it would be valuable to merge it as more and more people are using a kernel >= 6.14, with Ubuntu 25.04 for instance. |

Given this, the claim in the README that "DisplayLink has verified the module compiles and works with Ubuntu variants of kernels up to 6.15", sounds rather aspirational to me. |

Closing the PR because the change has already been included in the tree |
