What a nightmare.  Does this not give the creeps to any of you who add
to this code?

I'm finally fed up with this, and say NAK here.

Please use something like this instead:

	#define IMX_CHIP_REVISION(maj, min) ((maj) * 16 + (min))

Feel free to add appropriate range checking on the parameters,
probably using BUILD_BUG_ON() so it gets caught at compile time.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
