These four bits mean "revision". The number comes from hardware, so the ST ASIC department has some person who is responsible for revising the VHDL or Verilog code that this hardware is compiled from, and that person is bumping the version. Theoretically it is a "company function" or something bureaucratic like that updating the hardware so I guess it could be several people following procedure who have updated this number in the hardware over the years. But I bet it is a single person in Grenoble who has been doing the MMC/SD block since it appeared. Yours, Linus Walleij
