Added support for second source devices distributed from MEDION. The original device was also distributed from the discounters Lidl and ALDI. Lidl with the name Silvercrest, ALDI with the name MEDION. MEDION changed the device-ID from 0x6109 to 0x610A.
This patch was released in 2014 on this site https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg69768.html , but the driver_info was not correct.

This patch is for an unmodified upstream file - the patch should go upstream. Fortunately a one-line patch like this should be readily accepted.

The process for submitting patches is documented here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/tree/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst
In this cases the patch should be emailed to:

You should run scripts/checkpatch.pl from the kernel tree on your patch to make sure you are following the kernel rules, but if you are lucky the maintainer (Mauro Carvalho Chehab) will take pity on you and correct any minor errors.

Post a message here once the patch is accepted upstream and we can back-port it.
