Agreed.

Or some random garbage...

AFAIK, we don't use it. But I can ask around.

Yeah, I think its best just to revert it.
If an eMMC vendor has an issue with this 16bits bogus oemid (Sandisk does) -
they can handle their oemid-specific quirks - I know I will.

Please note that it was picked by stable as well.

Thanks,
