Is there an example of "doing it right" for built-in-to-the-machine
devices?

(My experience with the new-style options is that almost
always they're designed for x86 where the device they're attached
to is also created on the command line, and then handling of boards
where the device is builtin is either an afterthought or forgotten.
See also -netdev, where it took forever for built-in-ethernet to
be usable.)
