Hi Jiri,

Yesterday I had a talk with Jakub about the rtc driver thing. I
thought you may be interested.

Copy-paste from IRC:

--------------------------------------
jermar  : it also made me think about what to do if there are
                  more devices in one category, such as clock
mlombardi : Yes I had the same doubt, I've no made any decisions yet
jermar  : this is rather a generic problem
jermar  : for instance, the category can have a user-defined default
jermar  : and the user could be given the power to change the default
jermar  : in case of some devices, depending on their use,
                  the user may specify the driver to use in a given context
jermar  : e.g. nic
mlombardi : yes I understand
mlombardi : I think I should ask to Jiri what he thinks about it
jermar  : good idea
---------------------------------

I've another request also:

It would be nice if the loc_service_get_name() function would return a
service name with a format compatible with what the
devman_fun_get_handle() function expects.

I mean, loc_service_get_name() returns something like this:

devices/\hw\pci0\00:01.0\cmos-rtc\a

but the devman_fun_get_handle() function requires a string with the
following format:

/hw/pci0/00:01.0/cmos-rtc/a
