No, this is not ok, sorry.  Please see the top of the pci_ids.h file why
we do not do this.

There is nothing wrong with putting the individual ids in the different
drivers, we don't want one single huge file that is a pain for merges
and builds.  We learn from our past mistakes, please do not fail to
learn from history :)

thanks,
