It shouldn't matter.  The kdb code doesn't know where the info comes
from.  The necessary info just gets stowed away when the serial driver
initializes.  Having said that, the firmware I tested it with doesn't
have the HCDP tables, so it might be good to verify that such configs
really do work as well.
