After #428 is done.

The hardware interface is too "dangerous" and doesn't allow proper sandboxing.
Exposing only the PCI and DeviceTree (and USB) interfaces should be enough to write drivers. Anything that can't be done on top of these should be directly put in the kernel.

So are drivers going to be written in WASI?
