A separate database doesn't really work out.

Currently (as of 10.3) it is the responsibility of the kmp package
to provide modalias entries via spec file, like, eg:

# rpm -qp --supplements madwifi-kmp-default.rpm
modalias(kernel-default:pci:v000010B7d00000013sv*sd*bc*sc*i*)  
modalias(kernel-default:pci:v0000168Cd00000007sv*sd*bc*sc*i*)  
modalias(kernel-default:pci:v0000168Cd0000001[2356789ABCD]sv*sd*bc*sc*i*)  
modalias(kernel-default:pci:v0000168Cd0000101[4A]sv*sd*bc*sc*i*)  
modalias(kernel-default:pci:v0000168Cd00009013sv*sd*bc*sc*i*)  
modalias(kernel-default:pci:v0000A727d00000013sv*sd*bc*sc*i*)  

Then the package gets automatically installed and hwinfo detects the card
correctly.
