The device_number is currently allocated in the scope of each bus and does not need to be unique at the system level. This leads e.g. on Dell devices with three or four Device1 on different bus segments. To make the device_number unique at the system level, and unified with the HDaudio/iDISP SDI values, this series allocates the dev_number with an IDA restricted between 4 and 11 (inclusive).
