Hi,


hmm this is actually the opposite direction than most of the kernel is
heading in, mostly because the pci_ids.h file is a major maintenance
pain.

Afaik the current "rule" is: if a PCI ID is only used in one driver, use
the numeric value and not (add) a symbolic constant.


My guess is that the RNG is on the LPC so the values are used in a few places..

Dave.
