This is a resubmission of the Micrel KSZ8841/2 PCI Ethernet driver.

We no longer add device ID defines to the linux/pci_ids.h
file, in fact it's been this way for several years.
Just use constants or local devices in your driver.
Furthermore, because you made this the last patch, the
tree would fail to build at the point where the first
three of your patches are applied.
This breaks GIT bisection, and is severely frowned upon. The tree
must build with all available kernel config options enabled at every
step of applying your set of patches.

Current practice is to NOT update this file and instead
keep constants in the individual driver.

It seems I received conflicted recommendation from Alan Cox:

So I do not need to update pci_ids.h with even the PCI vendor ID?

Alan's understanding is several years out of date.
Stephen's is correct.
But you don't need these stupid defines at all, all you
use them for is the PCI device ID table in your driver
so just use constants.
