Two devices, same USB ID: one needs HID, the other doesn't. How to solve this?

Hi!

I've made a video4linux driver for the USB Keene FM Transmitter. See:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Keene-Electronics-USB-FM-Transmitter/dp/B003GCHPDY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1326450476&sr=8-1

The driver code is here:

http://git.linuxtv.org/hverkuil/media_tree.git/shortlog/refs/heads/keene

Unfortunately this device has exactly the same USB ID as the Logitech AudioHub
USB speaker (http://www.logitech.com/en-us/439/3503).

The AudioHub has HID support for volume keys, but the FM transmitter needs
a custom V4L2 driver instead.

I've attached the full lsusb -v output of both devices, but this is the diff of
the two:

As you can see, the differences are very small.

In my git tree I worked around it by adding the USB ID to the ignore list
if the Keene driver is enabled, and ensuring that the Keene driver is
disabled by default.

But is there a better method to do this? At least the iProduct strings are
different, is that something that can be tested in hid-core.c?
