The above link gives a nice description on INF files.
The PnP ID is defined in the INF file. Windows Installer Reads this INF file and installs the driver according to the rules defined in the file.

According to the above tutorial link, PnP ID can be a Hardware ID or Compatible ID. 
The ID here is a Compatible ID.

Comment 5 ashok 2009-04-07 06:12:27 UTC
PnP ID is correct, is there any other repercussion which stops certification?

Comment 6 koka xiong 2009-04-17 07:05:24 UTC
Hi, ashok,I have retested again with WLK 1.2 about oem0.inf and oem1.inf.
After applying filter,they can pass Run INFTest against a single INF,Plug and Play Driver Test,Device Path Exerciser.
You are right "According to the above tutorial link, PnP ID can be a Hardware ID or Compatible ID. The ID here is a Compatible ID."

So it is not a bug.
