Yup.  In order to provide support for weird devices that claim to be
something else than they actually are (magneto-optical drives that
claim to be T_DIRECT, CD recorders that pretend T_READONLY (CD-ROM)),
i've included an additional field there in -current.  The first one is
used to match the device (together with the vendor and model strings),
while the second one assigns it to a particular driver.
