The Right Thing that immediately comes to mind is fixing libpciaccess
internals to be able to read data from saner (indexed,
string-compressed, with common strings merged for different PCI ids)
file format to avoid problem with linear search altogether. Given
simplicity of data format it should be nearly trivial task.
