Yes. Many chip vendors bump the revision field 'often'. Just how
often varies from chip maker to chip maker. Some do only when they
have a new version of the chip that needs special work arounds (or
that no longer needs them :-). Others do change it for each change to
the silicon. Most are somewhere inbetween.

That might be sufficient...
