Subject: [PATCH] PCI: create revision file in sysfs

From: Emil Velikov <emil.velikov@...labora.com>

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.
