That's part of the question. imxlib seems to expect bits 12..31 to
contain the CPU:

	#define mxc_cpu()               (system_rev >> 12)

and bits 0-7 to represent the tapeout of the CPU:
	#define mxc_cpu_rev()           (system_rev & 0xFF)

That's a lot of bits for each, but tells me where the userspace
wants an **actual** board revision (bits 8-11).

That's confirmed here.

The other part of the question is where a board revision should be
stored in OTP, and Fabio answered that under separate cover.

The board id and revision should be read from OTP longword #0x26,
bits 8-12, and the mapping won't be 1:1 with system_rev.

I suppose it's time for us to get some more structure in place
for OTP.
