So the problem is "LifeBook" versus "Lifebook"?  These matches are
case-sensitive?

I don't know what kernel you were patching, but current kernels no
longer have the ".ident" initialisation in that table.  If it _was_
still there then I'd wonder why you set the ident to "LifeBook B"
rather than "Lifebook B".

Your email client wordwrapped the patch and replaced its tabs with
spaces.

Anyway, thanks.  Please work this with Dmitry.
