:
: devclass
: Represents a bus or leaf device driver, e.g. pci_devclass (PCI bus),
: ahc_devclass (Adaptec SCSI host-bus adapter). It contains a list of
: drivers that belong to it. At run-time it also has a list populated by
: device instances of this class indexed by unit numbers.
: driver
devclass is the information about all instances of the device.
device_t is an instance of the device. The only difference between a
bus and a device is that a bus has children.
