What I mean is the Apple custom OTP segment stores a textual revision
number, like "C0". Apple's driver uses this to pick a firmware. There is
an ad-hoc mapping between this and the numeric revision (which as you
say is present in chipcommon but AFAICT the same number also ends up as
the Revision ID in PCI config space).

Yup, and also antenna_sku.
