It's true that both devices are never gonna be used together (who
would want to implement a mpc5200 in a fpga ? ;), and personally I don't
really care if you reuse them as it's never gonna create any functional
problems.
The issue is more a "style" issue and if the maintainers allows you to
do that
(even if he doesn't like it ;), then it's fine by me. It's true that it
took me almost
2 month to get official ids ...
