The first and last are in, 5039563e7c25 and 605b3bec73cb.  The second
isn't.  It's not strictly necessary to use it.  But it does make the
udev rules a lot smaller and I think makes the system easier to use.

Mark quite rightly pointed out that the other driver_overrides didn't
automatically attach and they should all work the same way.  I made
patches to convert them all to automatic, but then it fell off the
radar and I never finished with it.
