No, those are vendors as far as I can tell. I mean identifiers for
specific devices - it appears to be common for for example Intel to
allocate identifiers for devices they don't produce, I'd expect there to
be some effort to keep track of that especially given that _DSD
properties may well end up being specific to the identifier used to
register in cases of parallel evolution.

I don't really know what that is, sorry.
