No, this is not full match. It just check e7, not ec. This is reason why
I asked for both ec and e7 registers of all affected machines.

If registers are different, then I think it is good idea to check for
them. I do not like vendor checks in such device driver unless we know
that there is some special vendor code/bug in firmware which cause it...
