[PATCHv2] NVMe: Use last bytes of f/w rev SCSI Inquiry

After skipping right-padded spaces, use the last four bytes of the
firmware revision when reporting the Inquiry Product Revision. These
are generally more indicative to what is running.

v1 -> v2:

The NVMe spec defines this field as an ASCII string, which may be
right-padded with spaces and we don't care to use those in reporting a
product revision.

I have it on good authority that the SNT reference will be updated to
align more like the SAT, which uses the last words of the ATA Identify
firmware revision unless it is padded with spaces in which case it uses
the first. In anticipation of that, here's a patch!
