Ok, that's not bad, you are doing it from the probe() function of your
bus.  As long as the bus got things right on when uevents get sent to
userspace, does it?

Really?  vio drivers are supposed to look like this with the .name and
.owner field manually being set in the static initialization of the
driver?  That's sad, and should be fixed, the vio core should do this
type of thing for you.
