Maybe. I should have remembered to ask for lspci -nv instead of just
-v, but let's see anyway. :)

This is the first device with a subsystem.

1022:7468, subsystem 1022:2b80

Then a bunch of others follow, but they also have the same subsystem
ids.

1033:00e0, subsystem 0e55:2928

1002:{474f or 4752}, subsystem 1002:0000

8086:1076, subsystem 8086:{0076 or 1076}

There are two identical of these.

1095:3114, subsystem 1095:3114

The subsystem id of this can change to 6114 if the controller boots
with another firmware. SiI offer utilities to upgrade firmware.


Unfortunately none of the subsystem devices on this board seem like
excellent picks for a unique board match (2b80 is listed as "AMD-8111
IDE [Quartet]" in my pci.ids, but if forced I would pick LPC and USB:

0x1022, 0x7468, 0x1022, 0x2b80, 0x1033, 0x00e0, 0x0e55, 0x2928

Can we find a more reliable identification method than subsystem
heuristics?

The original BIOS will know, should we try to pick it's mind?
