Indeed, we suggest chip_info for the more robust approach when name is provided
via string literals independently on the ID tables (as there maybe same ID in
the tables for the slightly different devices that may be autodetected runtime,
or different IDs for the same or fully compatible component; the chip_info works
for the latter case).
