Sigh...driver-api is, of course, an even bigger mess than core-api.  I
mean to delve into it and create some order there as well, when I get a
chance.

The original idea was that driver-api would contain stuff you need to know
if you're writing drivers but can ignore otherwise.  We can always rethink
that, of course.
