That is a loosing game to play.  There is a reason that kernel drivers
only require a device id in 1 place, instead of multiple places like
other operating systems.  Please do not go back and make the same
mistakes others have.

Not to mention that I think overall this is a bad idea anyway.  USB
devices are self-describing, don't add them to DT.

thanks,
