So basically L4 grants IO caps to the network card's io ports to whatever task 
acts as the network driver, and it's the driver task's job to bang on the 
card's I/O and hook up with whatever other tasks represent 
packet/protocol/whatever layers of the ISO 7 layer stack.

More precisely: seL4 hands all rights to all resources to the initial process, 
whose job is then to initialise the desired system. It would be that process 
that hands caps to drivers etc.
