No, I mailed you _and_ the list, as I usually do. You, on the other
hand, omitted the list, which I am adding back...

Unfortunately there is no other reliable way than reading the driver
code (or the datasheet). Some driver might say what type they belong to
in their documentation file, but I don't think they all do.

With the advent of CPU frequency scaling, the VID value _does_ often
change: lower frequencies typically need a lower core voltage.
