It's not about AGP devices. By the time the K8 existed it was already PCI only. The K8 CPU integrated northbridge uses PCI AGP enumeration to expose its integrated IOMMU, but it's not real AGP, just uses a mechanism similar to the AGP aperture. But you still have to probe the chipset hostbridge, and for these CPUs there were multiple third party chipsets with different PCI IDs, so it needed an own ID for each of them. The reason why it's not needed is that there are no new third party K8 chipsets anymore. -Andi
