Some comments about the design.

- register/unregister is more appropriate than add/remove.

- preboot is ambigous. preboot_hook is better.

- Using an int value for the priority is quetionable. Very often, this style 
of priority system leads to chaos, because everyone picks up arbitrary 
numbers randomly. I prefer to define enums with a careful analysis.
