I will drop the fixes tag then and maintain SR1.0, SR1.1, SR2.0 for J721E
and mention in the commit msg that this is a preparatory patch to fix the
incorrect revision string generation. And in the next cycle, I will
send out a patch removing the invalid revision IDs.

Ideally I would prefer to do this for all the SoCs, but I would need some
time to compile the list. So for now, I will send a v2 targeting only J721E.

Please let me know your thoughts on this.
