I saw that, too, but this fails in two ways: First if the drivers are compiled in (as usual with an embedded machine) it's too late when userspace is able to do that because then the drivers are already bound. (The underlain kernel data is currently not available to platform code.) And I don't want to stop the whole bus from binding, only the conflicting devices.
