OK so you're defining 0xb6 to the the 8bit ID for LSI.

Do you have some special reason for this, like that it appears
in some other silicon block from LSI? Otherwise I suggest using
0x4c (uppercase 'L') so as to follow the pattern of the other
vendor IDs.

Please patch include/linux/amba/bus.h to add
AMBA_VENDOR_LSI = 0x4c (or 6b) as well, as this is the first
occurence.

Yours,
