ddi_dev_is_sid() tells the caller whether
the device described by dip is self-identifying, that
is, a device that can unequivocally tell the system that it exists. This is
useful for drivers that support both a self-identifying as well as a non-self-identifying
variants of a device (and therefore must be probed).
