By and large ... here's a counterexample:

static struct pci_device_id tg3_pci_tbl[] __devinitdata = {
{ PCI_VENDOR_ID_BROADCOM, PCI_DEVICE_ID_TIGON3_5700,
PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, 0UL },
{ PCI_VENDOR_ID_BROADCOM, PCI_DEVICE_ID_TIGON3_5701,
PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, 0UL },
...

I don't think anyone would appreciate you converting that to:

static struct pci_device_id tg3_pci_tbl[] __devinitdata = {
{
.vendor = PCI_VENDOR_ID_BROADCOM,
.device = PCI_DEVICE_ID_TIGON3_5700,
.subvendor = PCI_ANY_ID,
.subdevice = PCI_ANY_ID,
.class = 0,
.class_mask = 0,
.driver_data = 0,
},
{
.vendor = PCI_VENDOR_ID_BROADCOM,
.device = PCI_DEVICE_ID_TIGON3_5701,
.subvendor = PCI_ANY_ID,
.subdevice = PCI_ANY_ID,
.class = 0,
.class_mask = 0,
.driver_data = 0,
},
...

Not unless they're paid by the line ;-)
