PNP IDs are supposed to be case-insensitive and so we should compare
them as such.

Have specific systems popped up which need this fix, or is it just in
the interests of being correct?  If there are specific system(s) that
are affected, it would be valuable to list them or at least say so.

It is needed by another patch identifying SYN300D as a forcepad whereas in
BIOS it is actually SYN300d. While we could change the kernel to match against
SYN300d I am not sure if somebody else won't use SYN300D in some other BIOS.

Thanks.
