Hmm, if we set the type on driver load, should we clear the type on
driver unload?
Actually it might be more straightforward to specify a type at
request_region() time. That way it gets released at release_region().
We're already setting a resource name at request_region time, adding a
type annotation at the time seems appropriate.
