What is keeping "all" drivers from being on this list?  How exactly are
you determining what should, and should not, be allowed?  How can
drivers move on, or off, of it over time?

And why not just put all of that into userspace and have it pick and
choose?  That should be the end-goal here, you don't want to encode
policy like this in the kernel, right?

thanks,
