You are talking about an ANSI Common Lisp implementation. But nothing stops a vendor to deliver its CL with libs that support the writing of device drivers. When Naughty Dog programmed games for the Play Station 2 the used Common Lisp to develop a Lisp called "GOAL" (Game Oriented Assembly Lisp) that was specialized for writing PS2 games.
