Hi Pascal,

thanks for fixing the previous version. This one looks good to me, I just 
have one remaining question -- why do we need both quirks here? Given the 
particular VID/PID gets both of them set anyway (and only that VID/PID), 
and the code is shared, what is the point of consuming the extra bit?

Thanks,
