The qemu driver allows for this list to be specified in the
config file. You could send a patch for the lxc driver to do
the same. You also could go further and add xml format to
add extra entries.
But as this is implemented using cgroups, the other thing you
can do is to manually, after you start the container, add the
devices whitelist entries yourself. Depending on how you're
using it this might suffice...
