Maybe a dumb question. Does I2C core still ignore the vendor part? Its
a long time since i did anything with i2c, but i thought for
historical reasons it ignore the vendor?

If this is still true, then yes, this is just a spelling
error. However, if the vendor is being used to match device to driver,
this is more than a spelling issue, and should be directed to stable.
