The following extensions could be useful:
- - product serial number - NIC boards often get labeled with a board serial
- number rather than ASIC serial number; it'd be useful to add board serial
- numbers to the API if they can be retrieved from the device;
-
- on-disk firmware file names - drivers list the file names of firmware they
may need to load onto devices via the ``MODULE_FIRMWARE()`` macro. These,
however, are per module, rather than per device. It'd be useful to list
