Hi Julius,

Having same bindings for revision ID makes sense. Sadly this was not
spotted during review, eh, life... Unfortunately the bindings are
already in a mainline release, so they are considered stable. You can
however bring patches (bindings + drivers/memory/of + dts) which make
the revision-id[12] deprecated and introduce new revision-id.

It should be something similar to what I did for max-freq:

Dmitry,
Any early comments on such approach from you?

Best regards,
Krzysztof
