Sorry, I wasn't clear at all. I'm assuming that the original driver list
is relevant, and that what we want to do is pull the 'fallback' drivers
out of the list and stick them at the end (in a sorted order). If that
isn't right, then this patch looks great. If it is true, then we should
figure out some way of preserving the order?
