That's how pci device probing works.

The driver defines a struct pci_device_id[] table with
DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE(), initializing the .driver_data fields with an
index into a static array of device types (in this case, struct
lpc_ich_info lpc_chipset_info[]), and the pci subsystem passes the
actual matching pci_device_id* to the driver's probe() function.

There's more information in Documentation/pci.txt
