Why do you need a name on everything? Funnels and replicators, for 
example, aren't a source of data, but just connected to things that are. 
ETM is tightly coupled to a CPU and you have a link to it. You have 
graph links to show connections. Limit this to where you actually need 
it.

This is too generic of a name. Make is something closer to how it is 
used or what it is for. Naming sysfs devices is not how it is used. 
That's just an intermediate step.

If you are redefining the type multiple times, there's a problem in the 
structure of the schemas. Really, that's true for anything duplicated in 
the kernel.
