Well we are dealing with two kinds of objects here, ports and endpoins.
Maybe we can the low level functions parse and return these and then add
generic code on top of that only deals with the port and endpoint
objects. Something like get_graph() which parses the firmware structure
and returns Linux port and endpoint object tree.

Not sure if it is overkill in this case but adding 5 callbacks just for
graphs smells like the design could be improved ;-)
