That's probably because it's widely spread on the tree. There ought to
be a note on this on Julian's example driver (though I'm glad to see it
already _does_ the right thing), and possibly elsewhere. As well as an
effort to fix it in the three. There, I added a note on devclass(9).
Someone fix the tree. :-)

The fix is trivial, and not even particularly tiring. This is the
proverbial junior kernel hacker task, though one doesn't even need to be
a junior kernel hacker to do it. :-) The downside is that it's not
particularly interesting to do either, and there is nothing to be
learned from the experience.
