Ed Maste 55aa113659 Calling RequestSupplementAdapterInfo before RequestAdapterInfo appears
to trip a bug causing the latter to return a zeroed struct
aac_adapter_info.  This causes two issues.  One is cosmetic only --
a verbose boot prints information about the controller, and shows all
zero:

aac0: Unknown processor 0MHz, 0MB memory (0MB cache, 0MB execution),
  unknown battery platform

The second problem is that the firmware version information is stored
away for aac_rev_check, for userland tools (like aaccli) to query via
the FSACTL_MINIPORT_REV_CHECK and FSACTL_LNX_MINIPORT_REV_CHECK ioctls.
When aaccli encounters this issue it prints

Command Error: <The current AFAAPI.DLL is too old to work with the
  current controller software.>

Move the RequestSupplementAdapterInfo call after RequestAdapterInfo,
which seems to fix both problems.
