Keep the .fifosize as part of struct vendor_data, define a new vendor data cunk for your variant, use .id and .mask to select your variant. static struct vendor_data vendor_arm_deepfifo = { .fifosize = 32, (... the rest is the same) } (...) static struct amba_id pl011_ids[] = { { .id = 0x00341011, .mask = 0x00ffffff, .data = &vendor_arm_deepfifo, }, (...) }; As you can see in amba_lookup() in drivers/amba/bus.c the table is traversed from the top, so for the new "3" variant this entry will match, while the next entry will match all older versions.
