Almost all these advantages are also present for user-mode drivers... and getting drivers out of the kernel, where possible, is a much better approach IMHO than trying to maintain a leaky in-kernel interface. The problem with in-kernel interfaces, even if set in concrete, is that any binary driver can go outside the interface --- there's no encapsulation --- and so break when the kernel changes.
