[PATCH] PCI: rework new_id interface for known vendor/device values

[Bandan Das]

While using the new_id interface, the user can unintentionally feed
incorrect values if the driver static table has a matching entry.
This is possible since only the device and vendor fields are
mandatory and the rest are optional. As a result, store_new_id
will fill in default values that are then passed on to the driver
and can have unintended consequences.

As an example, consider the ixgbe driver and the 82599EB network card :
echo "8086 10fb" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ixgbe/new_id

This will pass a driver_data value of 0 to the driver whereas
the index 0 in ixgbe actually points to a different set of card
operations.

This change automatically selects the matching static entry if there
is one for the newly created dynid. However, if the user intentionally
wants a different set of values, she must provide all the 7 fields
and the static entry will be ignored.

In most cases, this use case seems unnecessary, however, this
is a common libvirt/KVM/device assignment scenario where the
user might want to bind a device back to the host driver.
