I think that is definitely a solution. It does centralize the testing
for this particular issue. The only thing question I have is if its
really better to have the upper level do the check. Shouldn't the
driver itself handle the hardware and device node status?

Right now, a number of drivers honor the "status" property on device
nodes (via of_device_is_available() checks), but it's open-coded in each
driver. I'm thinking of "hiding" arbitrary devices from the kernel, and
setting this property seems like the best approach, but at the moment
that would requ
