I have applied the patch on top of kernel 4.8.6 and I'm using the libdrm
with the patch you sent me previously.

With this patch things still seem work fine, I don't see any of the
problems I've seen before, but I don't know how to confirm that the
value from sysfs is now being used by libdrm instead of defaulting to zero.

The values in /sys/class/drm/card{0,1}/device/revision match what is
reported by lspci for the iGPU and dGPU.
I don't know if it's related but the revision file in
/sys/class/pci_bus/0000\:03/device/ does show 0xf1 for both GPUs, which
is different from what is shown in /sys/class/drm/card{0,1}/device/revision.
