Hmm, we should have a mechanism for querying the kernel about the
presence or absence of a specific driver. Maybe a sysctl hierarchy
that lists installed drivers and attached devices (and maybe even
detected but unattached devices). (BTW, that would allow us to
implement something like Windows' device manager, which is actually
quite a cool concept)
