As I can see, the get_cpu_rev() is already a generalized function, used
in more processors. IMHO we should switch back to the usual prototype
u32 get_cpu_rev(), and print_cpuinfo() should transform the revision
number in a human readable way.

Yes, agree. Really I have not seen that get_cpu_rev() changed returning
a string, instead of u32 as usual. This must be fixed.
