What does claiming the device actually mean? Do I really need to
hardcode the GPIOs where buttons are connected at compile time?
This would not be a very good idea for a User configurable board like
Raspberry Pi.
I actually thought that I could configure the gpios where buttons are
connected at runtime using sysfs, depending on the actual hardware
setup in use.
