Arjen,

Now that you mention the cypress_m8 driver again, I remember that, but
I also don't put much stock in VID:PID combinations these days, since
it is becoming more common for companies to "borrow" them from other
well-known companies.

I'm thinking that the year it was manufactured might be a concise
discriminator to put in the HCL.
