Review Comment:
   I don't think so, it would be invalid for the device_type to be any value 
that is *not* one of the macro values, an `unset` should most likely be the CPU 
value. I can't think of a valid use case to have an `unset` value. 
   
   If someone can think of a valid use case for an "unset" value, i'm happy to 
add one. But i'd rather not add one for the sake of having one if it would 
technically be invalid for it to ever be used.
