Ok, I've integrated it in the branch and will send the pull request.

My preference would be to see fixes this late in the cycle more
minmal. This patch does two things: 1. change the polarity of the
system_rev bit as a bug fix and 2. change the polarity of the
function reading it as a cleanup. Both changes look absolutely
ok, but it's better to do the cleanup for the next kernel.

In this case, studying the patch more closely shows that it's
very harmless, but I'd rather not have to look that closely.

Am I correct that the bug is a regression against 2.6.39?
