1 /**
2 * System devices follow a slightly different driver model.
3 * They don't need to do dynammic driver binding, can't be probed,
4 * and don't reside on any type of peripheral bus.
5 * So, we represent and treat them a little differently.
6 *
7 * We still have a notion of a driver for a system device, because we still
8 * want to perform basic operations on these devices.
10 * We also support auxillary drivers binding to devices of a certain class.
12 * This allows configurable drivers to register themselves for devices of
13 * a certain type. And, it allows class definitions to reside in generic
14 * code while arch-specific code can register specific drivers.
16 * Auxillary drivers registered with a NULL cls are registered as drivers
17 * for all system devices, and get notification calls for each device.
