No.  I'm saying that the .c and .h files (likely .h) are the source to
the driver and driver maintanier are 1000% more likely to keep those
up to date than they are xxx.xml.  Right now, with modules, you can
easily not have to worry about any config issues outside of those
files.  Forcing a doc file just to get docs and breaking this is
undesirable.  Expanding what the driver writers are already doing
a little seems like a smarter move.
