You bet ... alone in qemu-system-aarch64, "-device help" shows more than 120 devices without a category... So if we'd want to enforce this, there is a lot of clean-up work needed first. Once we're in a good shape, I think a "make check" test would be the right thing to enforce that future devices are always provided with a category. Thomas
