As a reminder, can you please reorder the entries in the macro to ease
compilation by userspace - c++ doesn't like having .class and so I have
to massage the file with

intel_pciids.h: i915_pciids.h
       sed 's/_I915_PCIIDS/INTEL_PCIIDS/; s/\..*= //' < $^ > $@

to strip out the C99-style struct declarations (as my cpp skills were
obviously not strong enough) but then that requires the member ordering
is correct. Alternatively, if we discard the clean C99 code, both the
kernel struct pci_device_id and libpciaccess's struct pci_match_data are
the same - and I can just use i915_pciids.h directly. My perference is
to keep using C99 in the kernel as it makes the header much more
readable.
