When the virtio mdev bus driver is added in 5/6 it uses the same name value. I see virtio types all register this way (virtio, id_table), so I assume there's no conflict, but pci types mostly (not entirely) seem to use unique names. Is there a preference to one way or the other or it simply doesn't matter?
It looks to me that those symbol were local, so it doesn't matter. But if you wish I can switch to use unique name.

Sorry for the basic questions, I haven't played in this code. Thanks,
It's really good question. My understanding is we won't have a module that can deal with all kinds of classes like CLASS_ID_ANY. So there's probably no need for the wildcard. Thanks
