>From reading the code that Bill Paul did for the KLSI ethernet device,
it looks like the vendor/product ID remains the same, but the revision
number changes. I think that this is not spec compliant, since the
descriptors shouldn't change when the device is plugged in - so only
Anchor/Cypress is doing it right, and they have patented the most
sensible way to do it (device drops the pullup resistor). The only other
way I can see of doing it is for the host driver to do a port reset or
to do a quick power down/ power up on the port.
