This affects the new firedtv driver which is meant to be auto-loaded and matched only for vendor-specific devices. We now always copy ne->vendor_id into ud->vendor_id before we scan a unit directory (and fill in a possibly present vendor ID from there). This way, the root directory's vendor ID is used as fallback in the "uevent" environment for modprobe'ing per module alias when a node was plugged in, and in the driver match routine when protocol drivers are bound to unit directories. It will however not be used as sysfs attribute of a unit directory device.
