Please avoid wild cards in naming. It goes wrong too often.  People can grep
if they want to see if their device is supported by any drivers rather

One per line.

I'd also like to see all the options in the list.  We already seem
to have an undocumented difference between your new part and some
of the older ones.  It's always better for people to use the 'most
correct' part name the can.
