devicetree, at /system/linux,revision. This patch adds
/system/linux,revision to the schema to allow it to be used in
mainline Linux.

Sorry, no, we do not document stuff for various out of tree things.
Otherwise we would have to accept hundreds of ridiculous, vendor properties.

Fix your bootloader or make it upstream.

Best regards,

Fair enough.

There is no open source upstream for this bootloader. It is (sadly)
Broadcom's own proprietary code.

Not sure what fixing it would entail.

We have plenty of proprietary code all over the place, but that one is 
not ours, it's Raspberry Pi's own, FWIW.
