mlx5 devices are PCIe spec compliant, doesn't expose any sensitive
information Vital Product Data (VPD) section. In addition, these devices
are capable to provide an unprivileged read access file exposed by PCI core.

The parsed VPD section looks like this:
08:00.0 Ethernet controller: Mellanox Technologies MT2910 Family
[ConnectX-7]
...
  Capabilities: [48] Vital Product Data
    Product Name: NVIDIA ConnectX-7 HHHL adapter Card, 200GbE / NDR200 IB, Dual-port QSFP112, PCIe 5.0 x16 with x16 PCIe
extension option, Crypto, Secure Boot Capable
