Yohan,

> Add SPC version verification to avoid unnecessary inquiry command

Are you experiencing an actual error condition as a result of this
INQUIRY operation?

Devices often adopt new protocol features prior to the spec being
finalized. Therefore we generally use INQUIRY to discover capabilities
rather than relying on the reported spec compliance.

I'm OK with the change but I'll defer to Damien as to whether this is an
acceptable heuristic.
