No, the code doesn't use a constant, it's assigned in the same way as the
device name. You would have HDMI 0, HDMI 1..4. I don't have this kind of
hardware, it'd be good if someone could verify that the name is indeed
dynamic.

That's what I wanted initially, but this device field is not
used/initialized, and like I said the device assignment comes after the pin
sensing and all the ELD handling
