sg, st, ch could be callers as well, but I suppose you don't really need them. And for me, sd and sr already cover 99.9% of the use cases.

Those drivers don't export a block-device interface, do they? So you can't mount a filesystem on a device they control.

That's right, but users can "use" those devices.  ;-)
Anyway, go ahead with sd and sr only; I don't really care about having those calls in the other drivers.
