Generally considered ugly by the mainstream kernel.

The way this would usually be done is splitting your module into 3
parts - one common, one for device 1 and one for device 2.
Then something like this (cut-n-paste from drivers/net/wireless/hostap/Makefile:
hostap-y := hostap_80211_rx.o hostap_80211_tx.o hostap_ap.o hostap_info.o \
hostap_ioctl.o hostap_main.o hostap_proc.o
obj-$(CONFIG_HOSTAP) += hostap.o
obj-$(CONFIG_HOSTAP_CS) += hostap_cs.o
obj-$(CONFIG_HOSTAP_PLX) += hostap_plx.o
obj-$(CONFIG_HOSTAP_PCI) += hostap_pci.o
Which will build 3 different modules (_cs, _plx, _pci) using the common C files
and 1 device-specific C file for each one.
