I didn't get this. How? The code is for sure shorter.

Anti-pattern to what? Can you elaborate a bit more? Sounds like I missed some
very basic thing.

This like a mantra people are telling, but looks like simple they didn't try.
What grep issue do you see in this case (I would agree if we talk about device
ID, though)?

Are you going to remove PCI_VDEVICE() completely? Are you going to be
consistent with the rest in this driver?

This patch (first part of it) is to bring some consistency to this table. I
don't see how it may thing worse than they are already.

Nobody prevents Apple to fix this and re-use old ID. So, under luck we may
consider Apple's negligence to the standards.
