IMHO having a device_id without a context/driver_data field would be
weird and is likely asking for needless churn in the future, but see

As I indicated in my reply to the cover-letter, I believe this series
should be merged through the HID tree, so this is up to the HID maintainers
to decide.

p.s.

Thank you for doing this series I did not realize that the eclite driver
would end up being loaded on all systems where the ISH is used, thank you
for fixing this.
