I had another look recently; I wouldn't like to just copy/paste the
"new_id"-mechanism from PCI because the code would then exist three
times in the kernel (PCMCIA being the third user I am aware of). I
wondered if it was feasible to make the "new-id"-code generic and make
those subsystems just use it. I haven't started working on it, though.

Kind regards,
