Patch is fine, but we'll need to wait for Conor's feedback
regarding the compatible fallback before I can apply it.

Oh, I didn't realise you were waiting for me. I had deleted the thread
from my queue given I had already acked the patch.

I'm not really a fan of the warn when IDs don't match thing though,
seems a bit unhelpful, unless you've running into scenarios where the
firmware tells you there's a device present but actually there's some
other incompatible one.

That is pretty much what we do, because many of the chips supported by the
driver are not or not fully compatible to each other. Sure, we could add
more information about fully compatible chips, but in my opinion that would
just add complexity to the driver for little if any gain.

Thanks,
Guenter
