I think you could write a book on it. In the beginning, there was x86
and it was strongly ordered...

Only a PCI thing in the sense all the drivers happen to copy-n-paste
it and are mostly built-in. The Android modules thing doesn't seem to
have quite hit PCI yet. On the flipside, I'm sure there's lots of
drivers we can unbind and fun will ensue.
There is some work needed as the remove() implementations that we do
have are all unique (such as do we need a lock or not). I keep nudging
people to look into it.
