Currently the revision isn't available via sysfs/libudev thus if one
wants to know the value they need to read through the config file.

This in itself wakes/powers up the device, causing unwanted delay
since it can be quite costly.

Expose the revision as a separate file, just like we do for the device,
vendor, their subsystem version and class.

Thanks Alex.

Gents, to elaborate a bit:

When using the Mesa drivers alongside firefox [1] (since Mesa 13.0),
glxinfo (Mesa 10.0) and others, all the GPUs* will be awaken, causing
unwanted delays and increased power usage.
>From the userspace POV we have two distinct users who require the
revision file - libdrm and libpciaccess. * The latter would even wake
up _all_ the devices located on a PCI bus !

Let me know if you'd like the above in the patch summary, meanwhile
I'll poke and collect a few more ack/r-b/t-b.

Thanks
Emil
