We set system_rev from an ATAG in our bootloader.... this trashes that for us.

Is what we're doing there wrong or is overwriting system_rev here wrong?

That's an issue that was raised with the patch previously - see the
thread:

I'd say you're not doing anything wrong and the patch should be updated.

In the meanwhile I adapted the patch slightly to keep the low 16 bits from the ATAG, since it doesn't use them itself, and added some access #defines to get the CPU type part or the ATAG part and changed the dozen or so places in our code using system_rev to use those access defines.

I'm sure that won't satisfy anyone :-) but it lets me get on for now.
