Having considered it a bit more, triggering on BIND_DRIVER also means 
the silly "process the whole list every time" behaviour should go away. 
There's little point in trying to configure a device's ops before we 
know they're actually needed, and once a driver has bound it's too late 
to change anything anyway. What do you think of squashing in something 
like the below?

Robin.
