This pr_info() is completely useless... reporting things to LKML is very
likely to get lost in the din. If someone (like yourself) wants to be
the maintainer for it that's one thing, otherwise it's probably better
to tell them to file a bugzilla... or just report it as "unknown" like
we do for all other CPU vendors.

.c_ident here is bogus: c_ident is supposed to represent the CPUID
string, but this device apparently doesn't have CPUID.

This adds at least one PCI reference to every boot on every device. As
such, at least please read vendor and device as a single 32-bit
reference. Since this identification isn't actually used for any real
purpose (like workarounds) we could also set it up as a PCI quirk... but
it's probably better to just keep the same code flow.
