Sorry if I misled.

We do fully support the PCI revision number, and that will be set that differently for different hardware versions.

We have additional versioning information that we convey using chip registers (not PCI config registers), and the driver brings these values out for interpretation by our own tools. The hardware design does not support VPD.
