The comments need a bit of polishing, though it is not the main problem I have
with this patch. The multiline comments should be like this according to kernel
coding style (to my knowledge):

/*
 * foo
 * bar
 * baz
 */

I don't like hardcoding these constants here (and further down).
I understand that those are AX88792B chips (or whatever the number
is, there's a B at the end and they're not exactly compatible with
the original AX88792), but what about making this a bit more generic?

What I expect is that when AX88792C comes, we'd just add another
if (idVendor == ... ) into this code here with another magic number
and it will become an unmaintainable horror.

Maybe add a function which handles quirks of each revision (B, C, ...)
of the ASIX chip and definitelly define those magic numbers as macros.
