I pondered asking Logan to change his parser to include the bus number as a solution, but then I remembered the entire point of this is to make specifying a device robust against bus number assignmnet changes. I suppose we could have the parser accept and ignore the bus number ...
Yes, exactly. Bjorn's already accepted the series but we could add support for ignored bus letters in another patch if we want. I just think that might be confusing when you end up in a situation where the path includes numbers that no longer actually match the actual addresses after the bus numbers change. Thanks, Logan
