What type of device is only sometimes hotpluggable ? The commit message says "display devices" and "consoles", but I would expect those to both be types of device which have a class which is never hotpluggable, so you can mark them non-hotpluggable with the existing class flag rather than needing a per-instance flag. thanks -- PMM
