Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 18/19] mfd: Add support for LAN966x PCI device

Hi Bjorn, and Herve,

Bill Mahany from Microchip has now been in contact with PCI-SIG, and
has been able to get confirmation that Vendor ID 0x1055 is still
belonging to Microchip even though this is not visible on their
webpage.

I have attached a snippet of the conversation.

I hope this settles the matter of the Vendor ID 0x1055.

Best Regards
Steen

=== Copied from the conversation ===

   Hi Bill,
    
   Thank you for your email. We can confirm VID 4181 (1055 Hex) is
   Microchip’s. This is not listed on the website because we are only
   able to list one VID per company.
    
   Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
   
   Best Regards,
   
   PCI-SIG Administration

   Hello once again.
    
   Please refer to the below. Could you please reverify that Microchip
   Technology is still in control of 4181 (0x1055).
    
   Apparently, the lack of a search result for 4181 (0x1055) at
   https://pcisig.com/membership/member-companiesis
   Is still causing issues in the Linux community -
   https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240621184923.GA1398370@bhelgaas/
    
   Thanks
    
   Bill Mahany
