If this starts to work fine, probably we should add modalias support for

I've also been thinking about adding a special `amiga' bus type that
contains all built-in devices (but you can substitute `amiga' by `atari'
or `mac', the idea stays the same).

What do you think?

I agree that we need to do NuBus eventually, but it seems to me that
it needs to be converted to the new driver model first. For the mac

Yes, it relies on the new driver model.

For Zorro, there are still a few drivers to convert from
zorro_find_device() to zorro_driver.

onboard devices, I was planning to add support to the macio bus type
for non-PCI models to get that. I just got distracted by the request

If you already have a suitable bus for that, you can use it, of course.

to fix binutils and friends for TLS.

Nevertheless not unimportant neither...
