It's not a lot of code, but I dislike how much boilerplate every
single driver has to use if it doesn't do anything special.

Yeah, this sort of stuff would be helpful - there's quite a bit of
boilerplate you end up having to write to get drivers going.

Draft patch written, and posting to the list soon...
