I think the bolt receiver is able to separate devices, but yes, it appears the 
way it transmits device IDs and pairs has changed (some new registers it looks 
like). I am removing this part of the patch. I am not adding the Bolt receiver 
to hid-logitech-hidpp.c either though, because it doesnt work for me, and I 
havent invested time yet to figure out what would be needed to get it to work.

I will transmit a patch with just the new bluetooth ID, and add a few more I 
managed to find to fill out hid-logitech-hidpp.c
