Right now daemons could create devices if notified. Devfs doesnt make any
difference here. The flow in all they dynamic device systems is pretty
similar
Hardware --------IRQ/Msg--------> Kernel
Find new devices
Daemon <------Got This----------- Add it
|
Configure ------syscalls---------> Set up device
|
Go
The important thing is the "configure" aspect needs to be userspace
