Some of them should be claimed by real devices -- for example, the
pseudo-i8237 ISA DMA controller should be claimed by the ISA bus
(which I don't think it does now, unless someone added the code to do
it while I wasn't looking).  Similarly the PIC, the PIT, the RTC, and
other random bits of ``Industry Standard'' hardware.  It might even be
worth having these be their own unique devices, just to help diagnosis
if they ever go away...
