I wonder if the i2c bus attachments should have the option of being

I’ve been thinking about this.  I think we could wrap all of the functionality into drvctl, and allow it to specify arbitrary locators.  The locator names could be string-matched-and-validated in the kernel to get them into the right cf_loc[] slots.  Consider it “in the queue” :-)
