PCI device ID 0x9040 does not exist elsewhere in the driver...  how is 
it redundant?

1. So far, there is no VT8261 silicon in the public market.
2. Device ID 0x9000 and 0x9040 are redundant (for VT8261). The 0x9040 is reserved for other usage.

Looks okay to me.

(cc'ing postmaster@vger)

It is interesting that Joseph's email directly to me was OK, but the 
copy passing through vger.kernel.org list software included this garbled 
line.

Joseph's email was base64-encoded, and vger just got new mailing list 
software in the past year or so...   so I wonder if this is a vger bug?

Sorry, it should be my editor's bug.
I copied the patch with an extra blank line. And it caused the grabled line you saw. 
I will resend this patch later if there is no problem for this patch. :)

vger hasn't had new mailing list software in 10 years :-)

I thought Matti was working on something new, but I guess I was mistaken.

Yes, but as far as I am aware it isn't live yet.
