I'd prefer the first.  It's long overdue for U-Boot to start letting
drivers use the scan/tail split that is already present in the code from
Linux, and useful more than just here.

Fixing up the ID info directly also seems more fragile, given the
variations (existing and future) that there seem to be in ID formats.
