ok, changed.

Yes, this is a known problem and was discussed in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/8/217 . The main problem is that there a no
revisions for specific at91 IP devices but the revision is implicitly
defined by the cpu type and version. Changing this would need to add some
arch infrastructure which I think is beyond the scope of this driver.

I agree, but this header file was already used by the old driver and
converting would add possible errors to register definitions which are
not (yet) used. That's why I've left it as is and just made it a local
include.

Thanks,
