This VID is now shared by more than one vendor.

- Broadcom NetXtreme remained with Broadcom, later acquired by Avago
- Broadcom NetXtreme II (NX2) were sold to Qlogic, in turn acquired by Cavium

"QLogic will acquire certain 10/40/100Gb Ethernet assets relating to NetXtreme II family."

"Cavium had completed its acquisition of QLogic Corp."
(http://www.cavium.com/newsevents-Cavium-Completes-Acquisition-of-QLogic.html)

"Broadcom NetXtreme II(NX2) controllers sold to QLogic:
5706 5708 5709 5716
57710 57711 57712 57800

As result it might be useful to mark the new owner for certain products in their Note field.

That's a very limited subset of devices; for new QLogic devices they will probably use their own vendor ID. If you need to include QLogic you could put it in the device names.
