 Hi Bob,
 
 there is work going on to remove information about specific devices from
 the hardware notes and instead link to the according manual pages.
 
 The manual pages hold information about the actual supported devices,
 which is the case for stg(4).
 
 The point of this is to avoid having dublicated device lists.
 
 Does this resolve the matter, so I can close this PR?
