They may be arbitrary but they are certainly not meaningless.

It's true that Vendor IDs are managed by the PCI-SIG. The link above
is not managed by the PCI-SIG and is not the official list of assigned
Vendor IDs.

Yes. This is a fundamental misunderstanding of how Vendor and Device
IDs work. The *driver* really doesn't care about the IDs. The PCI
*core* cares about them because it uses the IDs to select the
appropriate driver to bind to the device.

This is absolutely not OK. You cannot take over Vendor ID 0x0e8d
unless it has been assigned to you by the PCI-SIG.
To my knowledge, 0x0e8d has not been assigned to any company yet, but
the PCI-SIG could assign it to some new company X tomorrow. Company X
may then build a device with Device ID 0x3258. Now we cannot tell the
difference between the Company X device that is correctly designed and
this Mediatek device that is broken.
This quirk would improperly overwrite dev->class for the Company X
device, and we would not be able to bind the correct driver to either
device.
I am amazed that somebody could build a device that claims to be a PCI
device and get the Vendor ID wrong. That should be literally the
first thing the hardware designer does. If you have hardware in the
field that uses the wrong Vendor ID, it is definitely not
PCI-compliant.
