I'm not sure how likely it is that someone would try a very old mesa
with a new kernel, but that combo would break if we dropped revn
completely and returned 0 for GPU_ID.  But I would like to move away
from using revn internally.  (And probably move away from the patch-id
wildcard matching, and instead just explicitly list all known patch-id
values so we can start treating CHIP_ID as just an opaque identifier.)
