How would you use a device path node to do that? I think we will
always need a mapping somewhere in the code between numbers and
AHCI/EHCI/etc types, given that the device itself cannot be
interrogated to provide this information. If we can do the same with a
device path, I'm happy to investigate, but I will need some help
understanding how that would work
