No, changing layout of QTAILQ doesn't need to change the version id of vmsd;
it's an internal change.  But if someone does make the change and forgets
to update your OFFSET macros it'll cause memory corruption.
You could catch that with an assert (possibly build time).

But that's what you're doing now, you're missing the trace call
and returning 'ret' that will always be 0 if it gets there.
