The aic94xx driver is currently failing to load with errors like
sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/0000:02:00.3/0000:07:02.0/revision'
Because the PCI code had recently added a file named 'revision' to
every PCI device. Fix this by renaming the aic94xx revision file to
aic_revision. This is safe to do for us because as far as I can tell,
there's nothing in userspace relying on the current aic94xx revision
file so it can be renamed without breaking anything.
Fixes: 702ed3be1b1b (PCI: Create revision file in sysfs)

Patch is currently compile tested only ... I'm just excavating my
aic94xx based sas system from the unused equipment pile in the garage.
