Are you kidding me?  It's a perfect way to identify this device, it
properly uses PCI_CLASS_NETWORK_ETHERNET (0x0200) in both cases and
this will not match any other function on this PCI device at all.

Please do as I suggested and use the PCI class for the differentiation
and matching during probing.
