Well, 'simple-framebuffer' is described by DT and includes h/w
resources such as clocks. So this is a gray area. I'm not saying we
couldn't use virtual bus for DT nodes, but we'll need some clear
guidelines of when to use virtual vs. platform devices. No doubt I'll
get a 'virtual bus' binding if folks are directed to make things a
virtual device.
