Thanks, I was wrong about this, I had not seen that the Vendor IDs may
be assigned to another company in the future. I should try another way
to fix this.

I will try another way to fix this, thanks very much for your explain.

There's an internal control register that control the Vendor ID and
device ID values, our designer leave the default value un-touched. I
will set these values in that way for the next version of fix.

Thanks.
