So this is a fun corner case and I suspect reflects most that the device isn't
in common use with mainline Linux outside of the hobbyist community.
The other type of ID in the driver was in capitals whereas those IDs are always
lowercase.  That rather implied that it had been copied over from the ACPI binding.

Anyhow, I've applied this with the commit message adjusted to suggest that if anyone
does want ACPI binding support for this and doesn't have control of a vendor ID
then they should add the of_match_table and use PRP0001.
