I actually did this in the first iteration of this patch
(In fact, I had all the device IDs there too). I decided against
that because there weren't any other users of the ID in the tree,
and I doubt we'll be seeing new drivers from this vendor ID any time soon.

I've no real objection either way though.

I did have a series of other patches for advansys, I'm fairly certain
this and more got cleaned up, but I've forgotten where I've left them.
(You know you've too many test boxes when...)

If I unearth them, I'll post them too.

I was under the impression Advansys were no more ?
