It's not wrapping a pointer, but an `ARef<device::Device>`.

This implementation is currently implicit, since `pci::Device` just wraps an
`ARef<device::Device>` (like any other bus specific device structure does), and
hence increments and decrements the reference count of the underlying `struct
device` automatically.

However, what I dislike about it is that with that, `pci::Device` behaves like
an `ARef<T>`, but isn't wrapped by `ARef` itself.

Just doing what you proposed is probably cleaner is this aspect, but generates a
bit of duplicated code in reference counting the underlying `struct device`.
