When SoC's revision value is 0, SoC driver will print out
"unknown" in sysfs's revision node, this "unknown" is a
static string which can NOT be freed, this will caused below
kernel dump in later error path which calls kfree:

This patch fixes this potential kernel dump when a chip's
revision is "unknown", it is done by always printing out
the revision value.

The revision "0.0" is confusing.
I might prefer to check "unknown" before free.
