that's up to the driver author to decide.

so far, what I think I'll do is give each devclass its own context and
node, and place each device's node below the devclass's node, so you
get

dev.fxp.foo
dev.fxp.fxp0.%desc
dev.fxp.fxp0.%driver
dev.fxp.fxp0.%location
dev.fxp.fxp0.bar

you can't have the driver be the parent, because some devices have no
driver (but they all have a class), and I want to use dev.fxp.fxp0
instead of dev.fxp.0 on the off chance that there might be multiple
devices in a class with the same unit number but different names.
