Hi,
I think there's two paths we can take here. We can either use module_init() with a new class for this location or we can be more explicit and pass the option list here.
Actually the device_init() hook does just fine here. Not sure this is a good idea to hook there though as this is meant for guest device backends and it could be moved at some point in the future.
I basically need a hook to do host-side setup after all config processing is done and before guest devices are created.
cheers, Gerd
