Add the PCI Device ID for the PCI Bridge Controller on AMD8111 chip,

Where is the corrisponding change to the edac driver to use this new id?
This new id is to be used in the newly added edac driver amd8111_edac.c
that I have posted to the mailing list on March 9th, it is used to probe
the PCI Bridge Controller on AMD8111 chip.
And for ids that are only in one driver, there is no need to add them to
the pci_ids.h file. This is what we have been doing for the past few
years in order to cut down on the merge-mess in the pci_ids.h file for
no reason.
thanks,

Ok, I see for the time being I had better define this new id as a macro
in amd8111_edac.c.
And I am a little curious that do you mean that pci_ids.h maintainer
would have to track how many times a new id have been requested to
decide if to merge it into the file or not?
Thank you very much for your comments!
Best regards,
Harry
