So, I guess you are concerned about the groupings because of the
different firmwares or something like that?  Perhaps a comment that
says "this could be a version 2 device" is just as handy?  Since the
driver prints the name of the firmware it wants, is there any real
need for grouping the IDs?

OTOH, is there any actual harm from the duplicate entry?  It "seems"
wrong to me too, but I guess it does no harm...?

Leann and/or Ben, was this just tidying-up?  I'm guessing there wasn't
an actual bug involved?
