Thanks!

So I was looking at the Intel side earlier and it doesn't dump the
revision it had *before* the early loading. And people have asked for
that functionality - to be able to dump the revision which got
overwritten.

So I'll try to pull up that code and use for both drivers, test on all
machines and send out a proper set.

And yap, you'll get that eventually through tip, in time for 6.7.

Thx.
