if you need to treak certain aspects of the IP differently, you need the
revision check, don't be so childish.

what I'm saying is that we can give new IP revision a chance to work if
they have no programming model differences (except for, perhaps, new
features and different erratas).

On dwc3 (drivers/usb/dwc3) we support every single revision of the IP.
We only have revision checks to enable (or not) known silicon erratas.
